Last Day of the Year

It's the last day of the year,
Yet from the moment that I woke up from my bed,
Have been feelin' that today will be kinda like any other ordinary day,
Any other day where I will be lazing around the house doing nothing,
Any other day where there will be nothing really special going on...

Yet, I will not let that happen,
It's the last day of the year,
It's time to finish off unfinished business,
Time to reflect on what had happened during the past one year,
Time to add some final touches on my personal goals and plans for the brand new year...
Bring it on, 2008!

Was Just Lying On My Bed

Was just lying on my bed,

Couldn't sleep well at all for the past few days,

Even though I woke up early this morning,

Even though I did not take a nap this afternoon,

Even though I did fill up my tummy during supper at night...

Was just lying on my bed,
Thinking what a year it had been;

A year full of laughter and sorrow,
A year full of achievements and failures,

A year full of memorable events that marks a chapter in my life…

Was just lying on my bed,
Looking forward on what’s in store for me in the near future,

Excited yet nervous on what’s going to happen in my life,

Planning on what I am going to do as I grow older,

Imagining what will I be in five years time, in ten years time, in twenty years time…

Was just lying on my bed,
Thinking, until I was sucked into a magical dream of mine...

Open Days and PICOM PC Fair

It was the first weekend after my STPM examinations... and I have planned quite a bit so that all the things can be fit into the two days of weekend...

This weekend the first private college that I heard of that was having its open day was Taylor's UC... for three days. I visited the campus myself to listen to a talk called "Project Based Engineering at Taylor's University College" by one of the lecturers... Actually I thought that the title was just something to attract people to listen to the talk... like, instead of putting plain two words "Engineering Talk" as its talk title... to attract people to come and listen and see for themselves what is engineering all about...

But my suspicions were true... it wasn't really about engineering as a field of study. From the very first five slides of the presentation, I could sense that a lot of the parents that were attending the talk must be wondering whether they really come here to listen to all these stuff... all these about what does the students in the engineering department do during their study here in Taylors...

But to me as an STPM engineering student I think it is very beneficial to me... it really gave me a picture of what to expect when I am going to study engineering next year...

The next day I went to the UTAR Setapak campus for their one-day open day. Also listened to the engineering talk, and participated in the campus tour... got to see for myself how the campus looks like. But the tour guide told me that the engineering department is in the midst of relocating to the new campus in Kampar... I heard that it's going to be as early as next year!! Imagine... next year I need to be in Kampar already?!!!

Actually wanted to drop by the FACON Edufair in PWTC but did not have the time... went straight to KLCC for the PICOM PC Fair... A lot of people as usual... didn't really buy anything as I was just there to look around only... (There's so many PC Fairs in a year... and also I don't really have anything to buy also...)...

FYI, still staying at home doing nothing these few days...

Finally... It's Over

It's Over... It's Over... It's OVERRR!!!

Finally... Phew... together we made it through....

Thanks to my classmates who have helped me get through this exam...

This was what happened after the Physics paper yesterday evening:

Some went to sing K... some went to play at arcade... some went to play Dota... (I followed TK, Ben, WK, SL there... have not played for almost one year already... need to catch up a lot...) Some went straight home and settle some things first before joining us again... and some just went home like that after the paper...

After playing DotA we joined the rest of the gang at some seafood restaurant in Puchong... then we headed to a few of our houses... and that included my house. Then 9 of us (TK, Ben, WK, SL, Jo, HC, CW, XH and me) went to some Laundry Bar at the Curve. KH didn't follow us. We joined ZJ who was waiting for us there for drinks... and I mean drinking liqour... I actually drink a lot... but I don't think I was drunk... maybe added too much coke.. haha...

I don't think we really talked about any 'relevant' topic... we just sat down there... keep on pouring liqour and coke and some tea water... and then Han took out a deck of cards and we started played silly games with it... the ones who lose were to drink a certain amount of liqour... haha... Actually this was the first time I have ever been inside these places... what an experience!

By the time we reached that place it was almost 11.30pm... and since it was Monday I think it was the reason why the bar do not open till really late... so at around 1am we left and the ten of us headed to our next destination: some food court near Sri Hartamas. There the most of us were introduced to a new kind of 'thing' (couldn't figure out how should I describe it...)... they pronounced it 'shee-sha' and the restaurant is near the fire station in Sri Hartamas... (I couldn't really make myself recognize of the place because it was so dark at that time!)

According to Jo, 'shee-sha' is like this thing where you suck the gas that was created when the water is heated using charcoal.... that's kinda how I get it. RM 10 for a full thing... don't know la... it's like an alternative substitute for cigarettes... but of course for those who are health conscious la... actually it wasn't really hygienic... everyone uses the some mouthpiece...

Then Ben suddenly saw one of his cousins with his friends at the restaurant drinking beer (I saw close to ten bottles of beer on the table...)... then what I heard was that they 'asked' Ben to drink like the whole jug of beer... and the rest of us kinda just stood there, sat there looking at the 'atmosphere'... WK and a few of us started to get worried about Ben when we saw the amount that he drank... he was supposed to drive us all back!!

It was 2 something when Ben, WK, TK and I left the food centre... and at 3am thanks to Ben, I safely reached home... I heard that the rest of the gang at the food centre left at around 3 something close to 4...

Phew, what a day it was! Then today I need to wake up early again 'cause Ben, WK, TK, SL, XH, YC and I were to play badminton at the Fu Chiu building. Then we joined QX, ST, Eunice and YY for lunch in KL and then we went back... I went to bed immediately after showering and woke up only for dinner...

Never imagine that the two days immediately after the exam will be like this... it was really fun.. thanks to everyone who had made these two days unforgettable to me... really hope the next time we will be able to do this again...

Now I am thinking that maybe I will start working next week... if not the holidays will be so boring... but this week I definitely want to relax first!!
