Adios 2008 Holla 2009

Once again welcome to the mind of the wacky(not as wacky as Daniel), crazy(not as crazy as Joel), cool(not as cool as Chua & Selvan) and handsome(not as handsome as Keshan) scholar(blowing my own trumpet eh?, at least I blew theirs too).


So a recap of 2008 is due I suppose.
The first 6 months of 2008 were the most non-productive months of my entire life, ever. Other than picking up guitar, I don't think I did anything worthwhile.

SPM results were great.
JPA was great.
KTT was/is hmm great =D.
INDIA is/will be great? I don't know.

The rest of my 2008 is basically what I've been blogging about, so feel free to check my older posts if you're interested la.

2. Learn Mandarin

3. Be more calm and composed
4. Mature mentally and most importantly spiritually
5. Stop/Reduce teasing people
6. Stop/Reduce swearing
7. Stop/Reduce daydreaming too much

Go Kart
3A's for AS and A2
Visit a foreign country, not India again LOL


So the last day of 2008, we were not planning to go anywhere since we had no transport and bascially nobody was back at college that early coz most people came back on the 4th of January. Then around noon, got a call from Joey asking if wana go Sunway. We were up for it and in half an hour's time, we were on our way to Sunway Piramid.

The majestic Petronas Twin Towers, still the tallest TWIN towers in the world.


Not even close to the tallest building in the world currently though lol.


This is how they serve coffee in Vietnam I suppose.


Huge mirror beside the elevator =D


Outside Sunway Piramid


We some horny people.


Horny horny.


Fountain at KLCC


Another group pic.

Makan-ing Burger King on the wet grass.


Aiya photographer didn't get the top of the towers.


The 2 devils we were out with.


The amazing fireworks. Only took 1 pic, then was in awe.

On the way to Piramid we took the wrong turning on the highway and ended up wasting a lot of time U-turning. We U-turned twice if im not mistaken. Then there was once 4 lanes and Joey took the extreme left road, and Keshan said take right. She veered to middle ones, Keshan said right again, then all of us were like which right! Then almost hit the divider and Joey slammed on the brakes, tires screeched, and took the extreme right. Phew. Chua's driving seems waaaay safer =D

So we finally reached Piramid in one piece and decided to watch a movie. It was a choice between watching Twilight again or The Spirit so we chose The Spirit and the poster looked kinda cool and it had a star studded cast, Scarlet Johannson, Megan Fox and Samuel L. Jackson. IT WAS THE STUPIDEST MOVIE I'VE EVER WATCHED. Wasted 11 bucks on some cheap crap. Only the red tie looked good. The rest of the movie was 100% CRAP!

See, even the poster looks cool. Extremely misleading!

Next we thought of staying on all night for the countdown but didn't know if Keshan and Selvan wanted too, but in the end all of us stayed and we went to KLCC for the Countdown. The fireworks were absolutely amazing and lasted around 6 minutes but the build up to the actual countdown sucked. Host of the place was very dead, and some lame ass music was playing in the background. At least play some up beat music to get the crowd going la, seesh. Had dinner on the grass. And came back around 2am+. On the way back got stopped by the police and he kinda waved us down but we thought nothing so Joey drove on, he rapped on the window. Then needed license n all (cause she looked to yound to drive I suppose haha). So that was that for the New Year Countdown.

RANDOM PICS!!

And that is just for A Levels


This is how you turn that stupid alcohol green. Mix everything together =D


Why all the hatred? LOL. Don't hate me coz I'm sexy =D HAHAHA.


Joel + Bed = Disaster

Okay well it was actually the 5 of us on Selvan's bed haha.


Something like this laa happened on Selvan's bed.


Man Utd 3-0 Chelsea! WHEE~ The atmosphere was amazing at Al Salam! Go Man Utd!


I LOVE Mandarin Oranges! We had 3 boxes of them =D


When scholars go hungry.


I thought I lost my wallet one day, and luckily found it back in the CR. It must have fell down the night before when I was studying there. Phew! Then since sometimes its very windy so we can't play badmimton, we play 2on2 futsal at the newly cemented courts. But now the volleyball net is up, so we're back to volleyball. But volleyball is so not tiring, how to slim down like this laaaa. Playing football in the pouring rain was amazing haha. It was more playing in the rain than actually playing football coz you couldnt really kick the ball as the whole field was like a swimming pool. It was really fun.

Just to show you my tidy room(my parents were coming haha =p)


Now it's waaay overdue for our beloved neighbour, Pak Cik Parang. This festive season(Xmas leading up to Chinese New Year), he's been behaving himself except for once. He saw Joel's place's door wide open and took the opportunity to self invite himself in. He said if he heard any guitar at night or noise, he'll throw the guitar out of the balcony. Yawn. Not again. Lame threats. We all stopped talking when he entered but after he stepped out, we were like yada yada yada whatever old man. Just gota endure hmm.

This is my voodoo doll of Pak Cik Parang. And NO, he izn't that cute.

A few days later, on the 1st day of class, our padlock was tampered with, again. We were quite despo not to miss the 1st day of class so we all climbed out of the apartment. And the lock was cut open again. Who did it? Well the last time PCP had motive, now I don't think it was him. Give him the benefit of the doubt la, pity the old psychopath.

LoL hardened but apparently not hard enough.


The things we do to go to class. This was 'The Jump' okay fine 'The Climb'

Next is Ponggal celebration =D. So from what I've heard, its like a hypocritty thingy between a few people between CNY and Ponggal? I don't know, and I don't care, I'm Chindian, enough said. So Ponggal actually is like a kind of harvest festival. So there is Kesari(pronounced Kayseri) which is the sweet lil yellow thingy which is kinda sticky and really delicious. There is also Ponggal rice which is cooked in the pot and is also sweet and sticky LOL (explains diabetes =D). Most of tangga 11 guys wore err kurtha(not sure of the spelling) and jippa(not sure again) which are tradisional Indian costumes, to the event. The event was okay-ish and Miss Rajeswary can really dance well. We took loads of funny pictures of course =D

Rice at the base, milk will overflow when it's ready. Or something like that =D


The yellow thingy is the Kesari and the rice is the sweet Ponggal rice.


Kesari and Chemistry at 4am. Dhana was awake all night, and Beh also came over.


Dance performance by the ICS (Indian Cultural Society)


Group picture with Miss Rajeswary


We thought it was the best picture until......Look closely =D


Supposed to be a serious picture until...A grinning devil appeared haha.


Inspired by Christine/Usain Bolt


Who knew, 1 picture could spark a chain reaction of pictures AND laughter, especially Joel's
(Sharon's pose)


Us doing 'The Sharon Pose'

Picture taken by Sharon so we had to do 'The Sharon Pose'

So exams exams exams. The aroma of Nescafe hovering permanently in the air, whining left, right and centre, and ATTACK OF THE ZOMBIES! Well this time around there we'rent much sleep lost as I got 8 hours of sleep each night thanks to the limited number of chapters that were to be questioned.

Chem exam ended at 4pm on Thursday and by 4.30pm we were on our way to Mid Valley. Didn't really have much time to shop but I got myself a nice Converse tee. Then we headed back to KTT.

You know how they came up with this saying? Carls Sr's wife told him that. HAHA

INTI dosen't sleep, and neither did we.

Drove to Inti at around 11.30pm. We (Chua, Nazrin, Daniel, Joel, Selvan and myself) sang at MyBox(karaoke) till it closed at 2am. Wow the people singing in there, really the very terrible man. Haha 'I Don't Wanna Miss A Thing' was the all time favourite and people could scream on top of their lungs for that song. Then we headed down to Al Salam for supper. After that we went to play pool till around 5am when they closed it, and next to the cyber cafe. We went back to KTT at around 7am+ and I went to get movies from Joel and slept at 8am.

MyBox INTI


Pool. Well I don't think I'm THAT bad for a first timer. Or maybe I am hmm.


Woke up around 11am(suprisingly LOL) and found out that Christine msged twice already asking me to go search for some treasure around Tangga 1. I'm sorry if I kept ya'll waiting =x Not suprisingly it had something to do with Panda and Stinky(i'll get ya'll back someday) haha. But thanks a lot Christine Evelyn Sharon and Sylvia =D


Thx a lot Joel. I'm touched. Seriously. LOL.


Wow hidden treasure. Haha.


Panda. How 'unexpected' haha. Thanks a lot err I don't know which apartment(I'm not Joel) but thanks =D

Line for the KTM at Nilai


This is the train I take back to Tapah Road(40 mins from Teluk Intan)


My birthday cake. Yummy.


Blowing out the candles.

So basically the next time I'll be home will be in JUNE! After my AS. So this blog will be having a nice long break haha. Imagine 5 months stuck at Kawasan Tanah Terbiar. NOoOOOooOoOOo!
