Hii

Time slips by so quickly that sometimes, it does not cross my mind how much time has passed by. It is not until I take a step back from the world and quietly reflect on the days that I noticed the many days that slipped away. This kinda explains why I've been MIA here for so long cos I didn't realize that my last posting was so long ago. Hahhaa. Til I visited my blog again. Nyek nyek. Sorrie bloggie.


Because the very many little things are the ones that adds up into my life over the past few months, I'll let the pictures do abit of the talking. Hehees. Starting with the movies and dramas I've recently got the chance to watch :



Almost Home is an animated dreamworks cartoon which I watched at the cinemas with my uni buddies. Its cute and bubbly plus Oh’s expressions. Aahs!! My favourite part was probably Oh’s involuntary dancing. Hees. :)) If you’re wondering, Oh is the name of the main alien in the show. Another good movie which I watched a while back is The Theory of Everything based off Jane and Stephen Hawkins life. It was less about the science and more so about their lives. It took me a day to get over this show because the first half of the show was heartbreaking yet inspiring while the second part of it made me curious and the ending left me feeling.. upset and disappointed. Watch and you'll know why. Hehees. Anyways, if its good acting you wanna see, watch it. Its worth the time because the acting was absolutely worth it, moving and realistic. =) The latest show I watched the other day was Fast 7 with my parents. It was 'fast' and 'furious' as the title goes. Kaka. It was quite good except it feels like something is missing in this one. I think its the old Walker. T.T I’m excited to continue with my newfound series, Forever and Sherlock Holmes BBC. Especially Forever, the first two episodes really caught my attention. I put it on hold awhile dee cos no time. Both seems to be nice series. Eees! :)


Then, it was a new semester. I remembered wanting to blog all the details here but now that I want to recap, feels like everything is a blur. Ohnoo..haha. Anyway, I'm glad to say, I survived! Once again, the busiest time of the semester is over. When's that? When there are assignments due, midterms ongoing and presentations like all caplang together. Luckily we managed (my group members and I). As for assignments, we promised to change the way we handle them next time. We started off early this sem. Due to the CNY break, we sort of procrastinated in between. So we did it til last minute upon completion. We really rushed til the last minute. Omo. All those late nights and burning midnight oil *praying it won't be like this again next sem*. 

Other than being caught up with studies, I’ve been hanging out at Vern’s place quite often. Hehees. I am grateful that I can hangout at Vern's place. :) Often a times, we chat and blabber random stuffs. Otherwise, we sometimes have dinners after going to pasar malam together. We usually watch shows as we ate. Running Man tops our list! :))

It's a little late to post this but during CNY, I met up with these people. The Gang! Haha. :D Really, we were super loud and pretty crazy that day til I felt kinda embarassed as I left that place to walk to the toilet. Kaka. Yet, having them around is one of the best things that happened in my life. =) 
US. Hehehees.

Part of my mom's family tree and We. Haha.
Chor yatt was spent in Ipoh. The rest, we spent our time cuti cuti-ing at Pangkor, Genting and KL.
I headed back to Kampar earlier for mid-terms as they continued with their next stop, Sekinchan.
U know whose hometown? Sin Chan's!!! Wkaka. :P kddinz.

During the Chinese New Year, I had a meaningful conversation with my eldest bro. He shared with me things that made me realize that uni is not all just about working on the grades and learning. Its also about planning ahead of time like what comes next after graduation? It’s not like I didn’t know this. I just didn’t know there were so many things that we need to and could start thinking about. It’s pretty scary. Yet, its good to know too. Anyhows, my CNY holidays was really well-spent. Felt a little heavy hearted when I went back Kampar at first. It was a memorable season with my family and friends. Had this precious chat with one of my cousins too.

After CNY, it was the busy period. I too managed to step out from my comfort zone a little.

Volunteered for my first activity outside uni - Help to teach kids English.
If it were not for some minor problems, it'll be great. Still, it was a good first time experience indeed.


And on the flipside, I’ve finally had the courage to walk up to some booths and sign up for some activities. Ann Gie told us about it so she, Lee Mee and me applied for it. Fortunately, we're all in this together. Hees. :) We're now part of the committee organizing the Eco-Friendly Campaign next sem! Hope it'll be a great experience.


Some other activities are lined up too like, In a way, can't wait for next sem. Hehees. :D At the same time, thinking about next sem makes me a little nervous because I do not know what to anticipate. Last Wednesday was my course registration for next term's subjects as well. There are some tutorials which I'll be on my own. Just pray that I'll be able to cope on my own feet.

As for now, I'm currently on my study break and finals is looming around the corner. Its been a slow tortoise progress for me. T.T. I know that only I can determine the outcome of what I want so I gotta Do or Die. Haha. With that being said, I gotta work efficiently. Mmms. :)

I've also been couch potato-ing in my room a bit too much back in my kampar hostel lately before I came back for my study break. It only struck me when my housemate pm me this on facebook chat while I was in my room : 'Why I never see you come out of your room? Are you living in a cave?' with a random chillax hand wave dance emoticon. Hahaha. It kinda hit me because she's the housemate whose always the one stuck in her room pratically the whole day except when me and Mae Jean kacau her. Hahah. Its sad that she'll be leaving soon. :( 

On a side note, suddenly, as I grow up, the ideals that I have about life are slowly being thrown out the window. I can't exactly pinpoint all of it.  Often atimes, when I have a disagreeing thought and feel otherwise with my parents perspectives, I'll wonder 'Why?' Weren't they once young like me and my brothers too?  I was a little headstrong with my beliefs. Things changed as I'm growing up. I still remember how it all come to me in a rush. I finally understand their concerns and perspectives much better than before to my heart's content. In most cases, they were right about many things. Even if they weren't always right, their intention was always in the best interest of ours because they care. =)

I could also see how if you'd ask me the same notion now and back then, my answer may turn out to be entirely different. Not to mention, many other ideals that I had. Like its true that if we do a good deed, we'll receive happy returns emotionally. If its appreciation from the receiver, think twice. Also, I think adulthood is pretty daunting because people are no longer that simple minded like I always thought. In fact, they are much more complicated than one can possibly imagine. Where is that simple-minded and innocent children we once were? This revelation hit me. This is especially true when I think of working adults. Omo. 

In short, its sad to slowly give up upon the ideals I always held onto and believed in as a kid. Aiseh. Like it or not, this world out there doesn't work upon ideals. It may seem like I'm complaining a little. Its just a piece of thought of mine because where else to complain if not here?? Haha. This growing up phase into adulthood happens to be much more challenging than ever. Never mind, I think its always good to see the good in life no matter what even if life is difficult. The best way to summarize this is to quote a novel, "zendagi migzara" which simply means life goes on.

It turns out to be a long long post leh. Whops. Mianhae. Have a good day! :)
