Dinner Galore
Friday attended a dinner at Steph's house, the attendees were me, Joanna, Ee Lynn, Regina, Choon Ling, and the guest of honour Maybelle who is back for the holidays.
Saturday, wanted to do my IC but when i went to the registra in the morn' there were soo many people that there wasn't even enough space to get out of the elevator. I gave up and attended the later mornign training at Kelana Jaya Secondary School. Then helped Melanie to order her computer with her dad then came home for lunch. Went for jap food with Jen and then saw a 4.00pm Lord of the Rings show.(It was damn good)
Sunday(my 20th birthday), karate training again at Bukit Bintang Boys school. Then hung at Jen's place, ate rojak and cendol. Then at 7.30 went for my family dinner. Attendees were my aunt, grandma, dad, mom, cousin(Peng Keong), his girldfriend and Jen Min. Then went to Sri Hartamas, Coffee Bean to have some drinks and cake(don't eat the banana surprise) and then to chili's(mamak).

Birthday Party
Monday night, attended a bbq with some uni mates, Jason jokingly said that it was for my birthday, i thought he was joking. Actually it was for Jason, myself, Yin Hao, and Hui Ling. The other attendees were Verina, Benjamin(Jason's Cousin), Pei Yin, Adeline, Leonard(host) and not forgetting Jennifer. Wow i can remember names. Well it's interesting to mix with different people. Jason, i can always depend on you for hamburgers and sausages.
This extra long weekend was greatly welcomed, well work again tomorrow. Flea's leaving on Thursday, i don't really bother with goodbyes, so said mine this evening already. The gang will be clubbing at Bali again. I don't like clubbing, i find the thought of blowing away hundreds of dollars on a few drinks just bloody stupid. Not only do you waste money, but also hearing as well as well as fill up your lungs with secondhand smoke.
Baka.

Eyes Wide Shut
My eyes swelled up on thursday night's training. so much so that i had to retire because i couldn't see. Took friday off. The swell didn't go away yet but at least the pain and the itch wasn't there.. but man really looked like a chinese, you could only see the slits. Went for training on saturday morning and in the afternoon went to buy my laptop. I got myself a Compaq laptop Duron 950. Then later went for an exausting meeting with my masters and seniors, exposing my self to the clubs admin and politics.About this time was when all the swelling went away.
Today went for karate in the morning(sunday), forgot my top, that was embarrasing, bu tmy master asked meto train anyway. Note to self, put all relevant articles in ONE bag. I slept the afternoon away. Still waiting for something to happen.
So till the next blog.

Different World
Came back from Arshan's house, 1 wakeup call to get me evaluating myself again and life. His dad succumbed to liver cancer. Then another world emerged before me when comparing to Uni to work and to the elite with the ideas. All heading towards the same conclusion. To be a skilled worker and to be payed as much as possible for it.
One is superficial, with objectives and methods too theorethical for practical use. It's meant more too prepare the mind of the students for the demands of working life. The other is sitting in the knowledge goldmine and feeling miserable that npthing happening with the same boring and pathetic days where you count the minutes to the end of the days and dread every otehr moment when you return to the same routine.
And there is the last one which came to me as a surprise, from the most unlikely of sources. Seems like the past few weeks have thought me never t judge a book by it's cover. Now this is the world of optimists and oppertunists. If you hang around those that have it, it'll rub off onto you. I'm still stunned, trying to get this down for fear that if i sleep i might forget it. We never realise what we are really capable of doing until what we see what other people are doing.

Public Holiday
Despite my promise to myself to stay in more often and to catch up with my sleep, i again wasted another day outside. Well atleast i narrowed down my preferred choice of notebooks to either the Compaq Pressario 1700 or 700. Again i blew more money away at McD's and Coffee Bean. I had better avoid those establishments for the coming month.
Can you imagine that this is actually the first time that i had roamed around MidValley? Makes me wonder what else am i gonna miss when i leave for Australia. Anyway came back for dinner and then joined Jason, Verina, Jennifer, Ken Ming, Tirath and Eu Keong at McD's(yes twice in the same day!) and came back not very late.
I also found out that they were giving a free preview of AXN on Astro, so the bags under my eyes are because of the screening of "you're under arrest". Well today i just came back with Donny (a guy from CSA), did an installation(yes, finally!) and discovered the other side of KL which i swear, if you droped me there i wouldn't be able to find my way home.
Man i better think of a way to make my millions before i my brain goes dead with all this work.

Julian owes us bigtime.
I would like to blog more often but there isn't mcuh to say. My job is routine so i better refrain from mentioning it anymore. Last night me and Wen Yung assisted Julian in moving his apartment stuff. Not an easy task, if Wen Yung didn't come we wiouldn't be able to finish by midnight. Later we went to Puchong for our makan. Then came back at 12.30, if we were to go anywhere else i think it would have been later.
I woke up today expecting my whole body to hurt, but then again because of lifting soo many desktops and servers as well as martial arts, the pain didn't come. And i didn't even sleep well. Note to self: " do not stuff myself silly after midnight".
Thought of the day:
" Isn't life wonderful? "

6 day weeks?
Well this is the first saturday that i've been working in CSA, the morning was pretty flat.. well atleast i had access to the internet. basic, expected, desired, suprising, unvbelievable atleast i learn't something going for that talk in the planetarium, i can understand the complexities it comes to running a company that has 900 employees. This is totally different with the senario when i was working in Micro Village, from sales to the delivery there is soo much verification and 2 database system, one barcode, Oracle based and similiar system i think just so that it displays more information.
Well i came back at CSA office at 1.20, damn i just missed Mr. Low, so i think i'll get my bag on monday. Arrived back at home at 1.40. Ate chicken rice and came back to play gt2 till 4.30... woke up at 7, i got missed calls form Joshua, Jason and Wen Yung. Well i wanted to attend the gathering but by the time i came back from dinner with my parents, everybody was already on their way back.
Well since i was already dressed up, i gave Ai Ling a call and met up with her in pyramid. To my surprise i saw the trailer to Lord of the rings and Episode 2. They are really a long way to go. Well at least there is Harry potter, but i'm expecting a let down as it usually happens when there is cross-genres. Well had an interesting talk with Ai Ling, and got me thinking about what i wanna do with my self,
short term:
Basic: finish job training
Expected: to be content one way or another after the holidays, would most probably regard this holiday as the fuitful but deep inside would think that i could have done more
Desired: perhaps a sign to keep me going on.
Surprising: If i actually get to understand C/C++ and motorola assembly as well as a head start on the semester.
Unbelievable: To get a girl friend that true cares for me as much as i do for her. To come out with an idea taht woudl eventually lead me to millions after a few year? perhaps watermarking technology or encryption? i better dream on boy.
There you have it, the rantings of a student engineer that might be on the verge of cracking up if something doesn't happen soon, something better happen. Tommorrow will be karate in the morning and i suppoe i'll try to fill up my remaining free time with (i hope) finally spray painting my car as well as cleaning both the 4wd and the dog too.

Holidays are here i guess...
It's 1.20am on a monday morning.... my work begins at 8.30, i think... I expect a shit load of work ahead of me, hope that won't happen because i'll be also applying for another data entry job at night. Ok exams ended on friday about 4. Our class was so demoralised that we could actually taste our doom and the loss of RM 2000 to repeat a subject not even related to our major. Lets just hope and pray, miracles can happen. I have not ever failed a paper and i don't plan to start.
I sent Jack home and returned to home, wanted to sleep but was too restless. Went to Steph's for an embarrasing session of karraoke, guess what? i can't sing for nuts. Then on the journey home, saw an old lady being robbed by 2 indian men near Projet along the atria stretch. Got off bike, yelled, jumped in to ditch and got up the other side(ouch), anyway, they had already left with her necklace, her ring and bracelet and purse was still intact. She was shaken and had scratch marks on her neck, escorted her home and i myself went home.
Saturday, karate in the morning, caught samurai X, then i had all my medical check up and an X-ray taken(not as painful as i thought it would be). Then visited Manohar to borrow his PS, mine is busted..... suprise, he's is the later model with the thingamajig square connection. Went to Steph's to watch Bridget Jones Diary. Then came home to sleep. Oh i saw my dog killed his first cat, cool shit man... i'm damn proud.
Sunday, karate again(hey i better get my money's worth rite?), lunch and went to grocery shopping, suprise, 2 new bakeries both giving 50% discounts, bought myself a American chocolate. Came back to see a crappy B-grade movie King Cobra, yeah the tittle says it all! Then went to buy a Boston Cheese cake for Steph for the DDR session.(my calves still hurt, i bet they'll hurt more if i don't get some sleep).
Just came back celebratign Ming's b-day, Hon Mun, Lucas, Chun Kitt, Diana, Vinodh, Mingus, Hong Sheng attended, nice seeing you all again.
Well that's about it, i'll try to blog more often.
Peace people
