Firstly, I would like to wish everyone that is reading my blog a Happy and Prosperous Chinese New Year. This year is the year of the Cow!

This Chinese New Year, I have certainly received fewer red packets as compared to last year and also the amount of the red packets significantly decreased. The main reason for this to happen is due to the downfall economy which I should NOT talk much about the economy which is falling down badly because I'm not an expert in that topic.

Gambling luck so far has been alright for me. Going up and down, but it still remains negative at the moment. Well, it is a must to gamble every Chinese New Year and it is the best time to gamble. It gets the family united to actually win our relative's money. Certainly a good way to socialize.

Today, I met one of my relative which comes from a particularly rich family and she is just 6 years old studying in Alice Smith or something like that. Well, i got embarrassed with myself whenever she talks because her English is eloquent. Her English easily kicked my ass and she is just 6 years old. Smart kiddo.

The thing I'm worried most is myself. I still feel my own health is not that good. I feel sleepy at 9pm, but i decided to not sleep and stay awake and I found myself energetic at 2-3am. Got to really adjust my sleeping time

During exams and Post-exams!

Exams are finally over and would like to share some moments before the final paper, and also after exams! I know, its been a very emotional examination period for me, and it's really tough for me to face the exams for some reasons.

Well, a day before my last paper, that is Basis of Biotechnology, we went for a dinner at No. 52. Its a bungalow which eventually turned into a restaurant serving very nice curry and other dishes like.. Sotong! A day before exams and we are relaxing in the restaurant, example:
Dickson watching TV while trying to "study"(notes on his tables) when we are waiting for the food to arrive. He is actually watching this:
TV was showing some beauty pageant contest, but most of the contestants are "beauties". Well, Dickson is desperate. He should learn from this guy:
Our very own badminton sifu. He quoted that "It is boring watching those girls moving around the stage, showing off their assets". Hence, he never EVEN took a glimpse of it! OMG.
So, either he is:
a) a person who has no interest on girls.
b) he knows those girls are too "beautiful" that he wouldnt wanna watch it. I wonder man! lol

Eventually, I kinda screw up my BOB paper which was classified as an do-able paper for most of my classmates. Gah! I'm just not a Bio student. My bio really sux since I was in secondary. The only part I'm good at is... reproduction but it wasnt really in BOB. haha.

To sum up my exams, it was really a tough one, much tougher than my year one exams. MUCH tougher. Maybe its due to my very own condition that I've not been doing well, but I know getting first class in my year 2 sem 1 is nearly impossible. I'd be happy to settle with anything above 65, and hope I wont get anything below 65 as an average mark. Hope all my other subjects can cover my BOB which I think i deserve around 50/100. Bullshit BOB. A rubbish subject.

Well, set exams aside and its time to enjoy some time after exams. I went home, I turn on my lappie, preparing to re-install games and play those games I longed for and it ended up that I actually..... left my freaking hard-drive in Semenyih. Yung Han borrowed and didn't return to me so I had to settle down with DotA everyday with my 2 bros which I alwiz freeload and leech. They are such good brothers and thanks to them, I have what I'm using now, a lap top!

1st day after exams, I went out with Mindy! At first, was planning for a trip to Time Square to shop for my CNY clothes. We somehow went to one u due to lazy-ness and well.... There were so many ppl in one u but I saw none. Han Ming was in one u dating AP. He is a player! 1 day AP, 2nd day nihon-go classmate, 3rd day YP! 4th day?? PY?? ?? HMM.. Then, Stephanie n Swan was also shopping in one u. They actually planned to go to Time Square at first, but... due to some unforeseen circumstances, they went to one u also. One u is proven to be too big that I saw none of them or maybe I'm too busy shopping for my clothes!

Besides clothes, my 2nd target is F-O-O-D. Yeah! FOOD! okay okay, the one who really wants to eat is Mindy not me! We went to Dragon-i. Pictures below!


2 cute piggies and yes we have to eat both of u fat pigs! These are actually tau sar pau. Did order few other stuffs, 1 is soup, and 2 more are also finger food which I don't really remember the name.

The same day in One U, I bought a CNY shirt from ROMP. It ended up as a buy-one-free-one because of their careless-ness to have put another shirt which I didnt pay for into the plastic bag with the shirt that I bought. So, 2 shirt for the price of 1. Quite worth the buy! Yeah. Feeling kinda lucky buying things from One U. during Christmas week, I got a free 6 cans of milo for it being in my plastic bag as well which I didnt pay for after I look through the receipt.

Second day is a trip to One Utama again, but this time... with my mother. Bought another CNY shirt also and I was there to help my mom to shop for presents for relatives n friends during CNY. Well, I'm filial! Yeah I'm filial! My mom finally finish spending all my jusco voucher. 4.5k worth of jusco voucher is now finished up. Oh no..... but still, I ended up with Haagen Dazs today :D Macademia nut became my favourite Ice-cream and I am craving for it all the time. OMG! Haagen Dazs is definitely worth the voucher and it tastes great!

Well. Thats all for today. Been not updating for some time but when I actually update my blog today, I broke my pimple killer while typing this blog!Oh no! I'm sorry steph, I broke it. Oh no... Expensive stuffs with 1/4 remaining. She is so so gonna kill me for that. Honestly, I don't really know the reasons for my pimple. I had pimples growing like mushroom during examinations period, but its now calming down. So, I am certain whether pimples are due the stress, or pimples are recovering slowly due to that pimple killer. Sorry Steph! :P

Yup, I'm blogging 1 day before my exams. Just feel like doing it now. . . . .

Engineering Materials is my next exam, that falls on 16/1/09, that is tomorrow. I'm not totally prepared for this paper at all. I tried studying today, but it seems like I cant absorb anything I read today. I tried the past years, and it proves to be a hell of a paper for me. Well, I'm definitely worried, but I'm stressed, I'm depressed but I've got no ways of releasing it.

Yesterday I gambled, but it wasn't any better out of it. I manage to recover from losing 80+ and finally, I lost 10-15 bucks. I cannot become banker as my banker's luck its totally bad but once I'm not a banker, I got great luck. Well, I manage to get things like black jacks, pair aces and miraculously, my 1st ever 777 which shocked me myself as well. Although getting those 3 '7''s suppose to be a very happy or its a very rare thing to happen, I don feel it at all. Emo....

Hmmm... I've got no sports to play, nobody to talk to, no love, and got no alcohol...

I'm THANKFUL I HATE smoking and I DON't smoke and will never pick up smoking!...

2 papers have passed..
1st is maths, then its separation processes 1....

For maths... preparation was good, but the laplace question was seriously new and hard. Had difficulties answering it and I did a very stupid mistake. Instead of integrating x, I.... differentiated it. and this cause my 2nd question to be full of problems... unable to solve it.. omg.

For sp1... it is seriously a very important paper for chemical engineers. Preparation for this paper was good as well, as I manage to answer 2/3 question. question 1 is full of problem. Sometimes I felt i don't deserve to be a chemical engineer.
Why?
Because when the question is twisted, I don''t know how to answer it. Sigh.
For some reason,
I didn't know that condenser + reboiler are counted as an equilibrium stages unless stated.
I didn't know how to de distillation question as it has been twisted.
I know how to answer question 2 and 4 because it is totally identical to the problem sheets.

Am I really a suitable chemical engineer? hmmmm

It hasn't been a good day today... I slept at 11pm last night and miraculously woke up at 3am, then not being able to sleep back thereafter. Exam wasn't too good, wasn't too bad either. I've got what I deserve to get. So as to what has happened this whole day.

I'm sorry I ain't feeling good the past couple of days. Been quiet lately, don't feel like talking much. Isolation.. omg...

Hope I'd get better soon. Take care

I'm having a bad headache and I still think I am way beyond others in studies and I certainly have no talent in it!

Been doing few past year papers, but none of it can be smoothly completed. Full of mistakes but the worse part is I'm still having difficulties with my Vector and Laplace Transformation. Things got worst when I heard that PDE(Partial Differential Equation) is gonna appear in exams! This is a surprise for me as this is a new topic and it has never appeared in any past years BEFORE. So, to hell I go. I am gonna suffer in the paper tomorrow.

The format of this exams is that we get to choose 5 out of 6 provided questions. Since my PDE is gonna be sacrificed, I have NO choice to choose. Sounds more like ANSWER ALL QUESTIONS. This term is rarely used in uni. Most papers gives a few choice to choose from ^ ^.

My headache is worsening and I hope for the very best for the exams. Hope all of you who are struggling to study and of course those who are well prepared would get to handle the exams smoothly.

Doomsday! bye. PS is facing exams!

Exams are coming and I'm just back from HM's house

Its abit too early today, but I've got no place to study there, its fully occupied. So, I have to be fully dependent on myself today =( I know I would not be studying much when I am all alone with a PC. Oh boy..

Yesterday I was having a hard time sleeping due to few reasons. 1 of them is because I'm not in the mood to sleep everyday, but the other 1 is due to the chickens around my place. I don't understand why am I hearing voices of chickens waking up the neighbourhood around 3-4am. Stupid cocks, hens, whatever you wanna call them with. Even when I woke up this morning around 11am, I'm listening to those pathetic sounds. Irritating and annoying my sleep!

Did some slight revision today and I don't know whether I can successfully continue my revision. Oh my... good luck to myself..

Good luck to everyone who is facing the exams :D

My 1st paper is 2 days away, Mathematics... Wish I'd be doing well in it which I doubt I will do very good in this coming exams.

Can't wait til exams is over as CNY awaits. Ang Pow + Gamble!

Studying is something tough for me

It becomes worst when it is combined with the time one is down, losing inspiration and will to battle for the finals. Lack of essences of life has really bothered me. Why do I feel people around me nowadays are somehow less patience and easily annoyed? Maybe due to exam pressure? hmmm.. I wonder.

Anyway, I hope I can fall asleep, but my eyes don feel that tired. Its 4am now. The last 2 days I have been sleeping very late, at least after 5am I guess. What happens if I cant wake up for exams if I overslept? My body felt weak lately. Cough is not recovering and my mild asthma returned to me maybe. At least I felt it when I overworked myself when I helped my parents and played futsal. When asthma is on the verge of attacking me, I felt my images are illuminating but thankfully, I'm still breathing good and I'd take care of my body well.

Dont sleep so late

Dont sleep so late

Dont sleep so late

Been telling that to myself for the past few days, but it ain't working. Hmmm

I'd wish I realize the difference and I'd be able to control myself. I feel bad for not being to control myself all the time. Why is my willpower so low? Well. . . . PS, do what you are suppose to and don't do things that you are not supposed to. Wake up PS

It's been a tiring day studying at Han Ming house today. The progress was just alright, not too fast, not too slow but still I can feel I'm not doing what I can best. Maths is suppose to be the subject I like most during my schooling years up until now. However, the Mathematics now is getting more and more and more complicated and difficult especially when I reached the Laplacian chapter which I am totally blur at that part. Whatever shit the part is trying to tell us, I hope I will soon understand it.

2 days ago, I headed down to Italiannies to savor excellent Pasta. Currently, they have a special promotion which allows you to have 4 different types of spaghetti for just RM 29.90. Can actually choose 4 out of the 10 possible selections stated and this is how it looks like :

The portion is not too small actually as I think it can fit 1 1/2 person to 2 person for this meal and its only RM29.90.

After that, we ordered another spaghetti which is one of the classic Italian food, the classic carbonara. Price is the same, but it is a whole plate of Classic Carbonara. I miss it and I've not been to Italianies for a long long time.
Classic Carbonara for only RM29.90 . Basically, this dish is meant for 2 person as well.

We actually ordered quite alot as it is just the 2 of us, but we ordered sooo many things that was tasty but it took some time to finish it.
After food. Bloated and I'm really satisfied with the food and top-notch service provided. Kudos to Italianies.

Next we went to have some Haagen Daazs ice cream. Although I'm actually quite full, but recently, I'm just addicted to Haagen Daazs. Its ice cream is simply the best!

Good food and it makes me all hungry now.

To Mindy: Good Luck in your finals and do your best :D Take care!

5 words would definitely sums it all..



Its time to let go...................................



Thanks for being there for me...

1/1/09 - Happy New Year!

Today is the 1st day of the year 2009.

Didn't went anywhere to celebrate New Year's countdown, but I watched fireworks from my house. Although the fireworks are nice, visibility starts to deteriorate for a very simple reason. More and more high rise buildings are developed which naturally blocks my house's KL view from a 4th floor apartment. The most visible location for fireworks this year from my house is Mont Kiara's area. They were to first to let off their fireworks compared to any other countdown. They are actually 4 minutes early based on my computer. After that, KLCC and Dataran Merdeka's fireworks started then Bukit Bintang area as well.

I actually watched just a moment, as something else caught my attention, fireworks from around the world. Australia's fireworks is similar each year, nevertheless it is as beautiful as ever! Saw Taiwan's and Hong Kong's fireworks as well. Both are much better than Malaysia of course.

Going back to Semenyih tomorrow as exam's around the corner. Hopefully can study well there.

Happy New Year and have a pleasant year ahead everyone. Take care
