Lively Performance......

yesterday, Dan n I went to a concert or a show, i would say. Well, the special thing about this concert is, it was all mandarin. This, at least for me, was the weirdest concert i've ever been to. sitting there trying to figure out what is exactly going on. haha. we actually went to support Kailing and Vern Vern. 3 songs from there and we sat there for 3 hours. haha. in short words, we went not coz of the songs but coz of the people.

Kailing sang with full of expressions. sad songs as if she is really the 'victim'. really good. vern vern on the other hand was awesome. very very good and interesting. aman shud be proud now. ops, y am i talking bout him now. back to vern vern. she looked so cute in her outfit and her performance was cool and lively. others, good job. i dunno whether i'm being bias or not but the performances by kailing and vern vern were the best.

we came back rite after the concert. played some cs and spent the night together with ron, shiau chuen and pinggee. we were playing cards for the night after chatting for hours. kind of realxing day coz starting from today, i really hope i can find time to relax. i'm that busy till saturday. hope everything will be fine.......

holidays finished......

well, NUS pep will be wondering what happened to me till i say the holiday is finished even though there's about a month before the sem starts. ganja, i have to do some red cross work. i'm now in sing, just finished a meeting. lots of stuffs to do. stress.....

for me, the best place to go during vacation is to Parit Buntar becoz of only one reason: family. i spent a week back there with my family and those days were so wonderful. My sister came back. i went back to visit her. i dunno y. everytime i say goodbye, i'll feel so hard to leave them. very hard everytime. now it has been like... ops lost count.

i have to work harder now. have to settle everything before the sem starts or i'll suffer during the semester. even though i'm stepping down next sem, i have to settle some stuffs first so that the next com will not face any problems.

when is this gonna end......

awesome trip....

came back yesterday. quite exhausted and sad. i have to leave Palembang. however, with me, i brought back some sweet memories. memories which i will treasure the rest of my life. thats y they r call memories. well, the people i met were awesome. the team members were cool, naughty, sporting, supportive and noisy. haha. just like me.

Red Cross Youth gathering in Palembang, Indonesia. the camp was carried out quite perfectly. foreigners were treated very nice. we were like superstars over there. man, i dunno how many flashes were on me. real superstars. and the best thing was, i took some pictures with the beauty pageants. Miss South Sumatera. the finalists. haha. it was really cool. the pictures n videos are with my frens now. once i got them, i'll put everywhere. will also be my desktop pic. haha.

back to the trip. the activities were fun, i would say. we were given freedom to choose the activities. so we chose only which we liked. bout 10 or so activities. the best activity was the friendship sport. 5 of us were tied together and we we asked to play football. haha. we won actually. so fun. then we got trashed in voleyball. in this game, the net was covered so that we cant see out opponents. haha. really had fun. we met some other foreigners too. koreans, japanese, germans, malaysians, etc. they were all cool. we all slept together in the guest house. old wooden house. haha... but was nice.

bout my team members, i'm the third eldest in the team but i never felt i'm old. mixing with the kids made me feel one. we were singing and dancing wherever we went. who cared. no one knew us in palembang. but we made fun. everyone who followed us was laughing n laughing. the way we teased some of them were really creative n funny. hehe. very nice....

i miss the trip. even though i din have enough sleep, the toilets were dirty and the food was not filling, but i still miss the place and people. i really hope to meet my team again. and one of the koreans, Kim, the teacher advisor of the Korean team, is coming to Singapore next Monday. since my teacher advisor is working, he asked me to accompany her. and she said it would be fun to be with me in singapore. haha. but too bad, i have to go back to malaysia. my sis is back n i need to see her. sorry Miss Kim. my sis comes first... c ya everyone!!!!!!

heart broken....

ganja! ganja! ganja! both my favourite teams lost last night. starting with England who still cannot win in penalty shootouts and Brazil who still cannot beat france in competitive matches after 1958. sigh.... maybe this is what is called double-blow. dun have interest in watching world cup dy. all europe teams. ganja. maybe no luck. Ronaldinho has to be given freedom to play. maybe its time for cafu to retire and bring on cicinho from start. Ronaldo is getting back his touch and he might need some more time. well for england, i have nothing to say. Erickson after all, should quit. they just cant past quarter-final level and scholari. ganja again. England needs a coach who can gel the midfield together and find strikers to finish off the opponents. maybe the best time would be euro 2008. steve mclaren, who has vast experience in EPL, has to take up the challenge. lots of stars sometimes brings disaster.

lost mood to pack up. not excited to go palembang. however, if i get the chance to watch the semis over there, i might do so. i wanna see skillful portugal, with deco and costinha back, not dirty ones like they play against england. zidane has to keep his 'magic'. he was wonderful last night. i would say, the French won mainly becoz of him. he was extremely outstanding. he was enjoying himself on the field. I wanna watch some attacking germany game also. N not a defensive-style play from Italy. at least i have some expectation with these four nations.

will be starting to pack my stuffs tonight. just a week there but i've no idea how palembang looks like. so din have a clear picture what exactly to bring. guess i'll bring everything i need necessary. cool. looking forward to it.......

Palembang...... Parameswara.... here i come!!!!!

phew, one week almost past. one of the busiest week. infact the busiest during this vacation. actually, i'm preparing to fly to Palembang for red cross gathering. this is just one of the priviledges one can get in red cross. i guess i'm lucky. since i'm taking off next tues, some last minute shopping is happening. infact i haven started shopping yet. haha. just one week there but i need more stuffs.

i came to know some school kids. they r following us to Palembang as well. nowadays i'm meeting a lot of school kids. haha. there are 5 of them and they are 15 years old. the ones i met in Sitiawan a month ago are somewhere that age too. on seeing them, i miss my school days. waking up early in the morning. getting ready to go to school with mum doing breakfast. really miss it. now, who's cooking breakfast for me? no one. have to buy or skip. sigh......

oh ya, strange things happen in red cross too. i din attend any of the common orientation meeting, but i was chose as the logs head for that event. have to do it again. ganja. i'll be totally free only after that. ganja. maybe they chose me coz i was not there and no one wanted that post. i want to pass but there's no one to take over. lets do it for one last time. strange......

world cup is just getting more n more exciting. this quarter-finals matches are the best ever i've seen. its gonna be good. cannot miss even one of them. haha. go brazil. i predict its brazil vs england and argentina vs italy semis. and final would be brazil vs argentina. that will be very very cool. haha. other teams supporters, dun get angry. its just my opinion. brazil is lifting the cup. haha........

expo.... oh, expo!!

time for blogging again. this time bout my job at the singapore expo. CommunicAsia and BroadcastAsia took place at expo from 20th to 23rd of this month. well, seeing the ad in the papers, dan n i joined as the usherer/crowd controller. its a simple but boring job. very boring till we had no idea what to do. long hours working with least pay. worst deal in town but the timing was perfect. just before dan going to genting and me preparing to fly to palembang, meeting parameswara. we had fun working there.

i have no idea how many CEOs, Presidents etc. (big shots all over the world) have passed me. i was taking care at the conference 'back gate' while Dan was in-charge at the registration entry. he was having fun with all the cisco police while i was left alone at the back. pity me. anyway, i met some frens. the waiter and waitress who never tired serving me food and coffee. haha. they were so kind.

i have an advice. unless you r too deperate to kill time and save some money, please don't do this job. we were helping an outsource company. so we din give a damn bout the organizer. our supervisors had a hard time with the organizers. they lost their temper as the organizers kept changing mind and rushing us at the last minute. they think we can read minds. need to charge them for that as well. haha. ganja. anyways, dan n i were safe. in fact, we r so called the most punctual 'part timers'.

and now, i'm free. dan is getting ready to genting while i'm catching back the second round matches of the world cup as i missed most of the games in the group stages. waiting for argen vs mexico match. winner will fac awaiting host, germany. germany have impressed with their new style of attacking game. can't wait to watch arg vs ger. ganja good match. but before that, arg need to beat tricky mexicans. haha........ anyway, brazil is lifting the cup once again!

JB......

well, last sat 5 of us had lunch together. (ron, pinggee, maysan, sapien n i) over the meal, we were planning bout how to spend the day. at last we decided to go jb. wow. it just came like that and we ended up in jb.

In jb, we met dan. dan skipped church coz of us. sorry, bro. we went to arcade first where we can shoot some bad guys. after wasting some money there, we went for a movie. i was suggesting tipah tertipu but the rest wanted black night. i have a bad experience watching horror movies with friends. i alwiz end up laughing the whole movie. but for this movie, i really hoped it would keep my hands on my face and me under my seat. it did actually but not to me. haha. if u know what i mean....

before watching the movie, we had dinner together. after so long...... dan n i were cracking some jokes as usual. well, after that, it was movie time. i was a bit spooked up coz i have to stay in the yacht alone that night. however, i really wanted some real horror movies. unfortunately, dan n i sat side by side. me at the far corner. even before the movie started (during the ad time) we were already laughing. haha.

the movie started. actually the movie comprises of three different stories. the first story was nice. a bit scary but i was laughing as well. the second story was a rubbish. i wonder what is 'hyu'. if u guys want to watch this movie, find for me what's 'hyu'. dan said it's a rat. i said it's a cocodile. but at the end it looks like an octopus. no idea. haha. third story, i really wanted the movie to finish fast. sigh....... this movie will add to my horror 'comedy' movies. haiyo........ shud have watched tipah tertipu. no one wants to listen to me......

anyways, it was a good outing. after some bad times, really had a break. oh, ya! by the way, the parents of the girl i mentioned in my previous blog, have decided that their daughter is getting married. screwed up mentality. nothing much can be done......
