Movies

Luckily there's my brother, otherwise I would be bored alone. He decided to take me out to 1U instead of letting me stay at home the entire day. :)) We went for lunch, Ayam Penyet, his treat after which we decided to catch a movie of my choice. Teehee. 'The Accountant'. I chose it simply because Ben Afleck is in it. Hehees! Liked him in his previous shows. It stars Anna Kendrick as well. :)) Enjoyed the movie much simply because I could relate to the main themes of the show which revolves around accounting and autism. Plus, its filled with action and its thriller based. It had quite a unique storyline. Earlier, as we arrived at the mall, we stopped at one of the pet shops at the entrance too. We walked in and took a look at the pets there. Mostly, puppies and dogs. My brother spotted a bulldog and directly walked to it. He kept telling me how cute it was! So I too took a closer look and yes, it was cute! omg. Fat, big headed and round round like a snowball. Haha. Sadly, it has no tail. Where did it go?? :( Anyways, still, I didn't see a cute bulldog like this before, I always imagined it to be bulldog-ish, you know. My brother kept trying to get its attention by waving and saying Hello but it seemed disinterested with people. Despite that, my brother kept waving and saying Hello to the bulldog with hopes and i just found that cute. HAHA. 'Inspired' by my brother, I decided to do the same. I waved and said hello to another dog as well (Forgot what species) and it was quite mind relaxing. ^^ Enjoyed the short afternoon. :D

I earlier had intended to blog about my internship so far. Now, I don't feel like talking about the serious stuffs yet. Haha. Anyways, its past 3 weeks already. Time flies pretty fast. Hoping to learn much more. Also, there was this moment when I was sitting in the train staring out the window and recalled the earlier moments of the day when my 3 colleagues or rather friends, were teasing me, I couldn't help myself as to suddenly smile at the silliness of it all. At that time, there were other passengers in the train standing while I was seated and one or two persons were particularly looking in my direction so I was trying hard to keep a straight face for fear I'd look silly. Hahah. The thought of it though, their facial expressions, silly remarks and silly smiles. I know they're having a fun time as they teased me and I don't really care. Loll. Seems like they are having a good time and seeing people happy makes my day, anyway. Haha. Yet, it doesn't change the fact that its still plain silly! aiyoo. hahah

Anyways, I'll continue talking about movies which I have watched and do some short reviews.

Train to Busan. Most of the people I've heard from who has watched it said it was good or they loved it. I beg to differ (Not being shakespear here yahh. ahhaha). It was ok ok for me only. Plot wise, it was abit too shallow for me and I know, it is quite expected from a show made out of zombies as the central theme. What more can a plot go about except for the casts to run from these zombies?? Haha. Emotionally wise though, everyone was saying how good it was so I had some expectations. Unfortunately, I was not moved to that extent. It does tell you though to cherish your loved ones. I think that's the kind of message the director or scriptwriter wishes to convey. All in all, it was okay for me. The one scene that is sure to make everyone in tears is definitely That scene. Haha. Watch it and you'll know. :)

What other shows I've watched?? Oh yess, Deepwater Horizon. The first 45 minutes of the show slowly killed my interest of the shows and made me think if it was the right choice watching this. For me basically, I could not very well understand the jargons of those oil rigs and stuff and it was all dialogues. At almost the middle of the show, I started feeling bored and feeling regretful about the movie tickets (I didn't pay for it though la, my uncle did. Hahahah). When the climax began, that was the real turning point. When things started to go wrong and the oil rig started to blow, wow! Suddenly, the show was so happening. Hahaha. Really one. That's like the best happening movie or 'action' film I've seen in quite a long time. Omo. The scenes were so real and the different threats faced by the various crews onboard taking place concurrently was so well directed. It was honestly a great cinematic 'gan cheong' experience. Woo! :)) And yes, the 45 minutes are completely necessary as a build up to the central occurrence of the oil rig disaster and to get a grip of the whole story as much as it comprises of mostly dialogues. I didn't regret watching because of the action part. So worth it! :D 

Lastly, another show that's good was a show I watched pretty long ago. Its called Love, Rosie. A romance flick. Its very nice (you can get to stream it directly from youtube. haha). Its about the love that finds it way at the very end and best friends from childhood. Sounds familiar? Don't want to give away spoilers. As I was watching it too, I was debating as to whether I've come across such a plot before as it all seems too familiar. Yes, indeed. It comes from a novel of a famous author. Shh. Takkan beri nama. haha. Anyhow, I watched til the very end and yes, there's many struggles and challenges until the very end. I liked it how after everything they went through, they still had one another. :)  

  

Little Things

Inspiration is everywhere. I log onto the internet and see posts of people's successes (on FB); happiness that's spread through photos, twitter, blogs, what not. I see shared articles and write ups on Facebook. I sometimes view these links and find heartfelt stories. I stumble upon TedTalk vids inadvertently and feel enlightened by these inspirational sharing sessions from time to time. I browse through youtube. I forget how time flies and spend a few wasteful or rather, indulgent hours on youtube as I video hop from one to another watching talented people, potential artistes, moving videos, funny clips, creative movie trailers, etc. Internet can be such a great platform to draw inspiration. What I've implicitly learnt about people's success is that anything can happen and that, age is just a number. The opportunity is everyone's! :))

Focus. I pray that I will do much better this time than the last, if not for all the semesters. That goes to say that my efforts are channeled efficiently and effectively. *thinking of the whatsapp symbol* Hands clasps together that one! Wkaka

On Friday, I spent 2 hours cleaning my hostel and to shift the loads of stuff into my car. Another hour was spent at home unpacking HALF of what there is. HAHA. Another half or 3/4 more to go. I've not decided whether to shift out or stay. Still deciding. All because of my air-cond and bigger furniture as well as its a pretty decent room but on the other hand, I want to save costs during my internship period. Either way, my parents and housemate doesn't know about my plans yet. I wonder if my mom can guess on my plan with that amount of stuffs I brought home. Wkaka. Anyhows, I'm still deciding. Hehe.

Life is going to be busy even after finals. Just hoping for the best. Yadoohoo!! :D

May anyone who reads this have a blessed week ahead. :)

University Experiences

The course of few weeks have been an eye-opening experience for me. Somewhat, bittersweet.

I survived assignments and midterms. Survived! ^^ I did pretty well for midterms and UBS results were out too. Yeaay! Got a D!! a good 'D'! Distinction. neh neh neh~ Hahah. :)) So did kitkat in UBS. Hehees!

On a rather last minute participation, the 6 of us took part in the M100 Challenge organized by gti media and several external companies. The 4 of us replaced the original team members who unfortunately had midterm tests during the event day. Anyways, it had a rather similar concept to Amazing Race. Station games and challenges to be completed at each station as a team before we could make it to the next. Throughout, we traveled by bike and foot all around campus. We had a poor start as we couldn't find our first station (wrong label on the map dehy. kaka) and time was lost further when my friend lost her bicycle lock key. We had to searched the whole block up and down twice. Locate the station. Locate the key. During the whole searching, nothing mattered. It was after locating the key that I was thinking 'Why I join? Why I join?..'  Since I felt all my energy drained out and its only the first station while there's 12 more to go. We caught up eventually.

The challenges were actually okiess. Maybe just one or two were intense while overall, some stations were quite fun. Haha. The travelling part though was a bit..grueling. I guess this can be said for my friends who usually hit the gym as well. What more for a person like me who never exercise. Loll. During that whole challenge and physical tiredness, there's this one moment that's still vivid in my mind. It was around 12-ish that time. Sunny, bright and all of us sweaty, our next challenge was at the corner of an open outdoor field and it was to do sit ups at one corner of that field. Right before our challenge, I lay down against my back onto the green grass. It was that moment that I noticed one thing, the sky. The vast openness of the sky, that stretch of blue emptiness (It striked me about the strange flatness of the sky which gave an odd feeling of awe) and some light-grey clouds (which I thought looks a little like grey cotton candy). My heart felt uplifted for a moment. A few seconds later, someone called out 'Let's start the challenge now' and I snapped out from my thoughts. Later, I thought how come I've never done this before? Or I don't remember such experience? To lie down on an open air field and watch the sky in the middle of the day/morning with no obstructions to my view. You should try so on a nice sunny day, if you haven't. To end this, we did not win. Nvm la, I guess what's important was that we learnt to overcome the challenges as a team. It was my first participation in a challenge too and perhaps my last of this sort. One time is enough. :P I borrowed my friend's bike and have yet to return it to her house too (Never found the time ma). Hahaha. :D She told me once, she had this slight shock when she discovered her missing bike and eventually remembered she lend it to me.

The next day, my friend and I joined an Effective Time Management talk. It was surprisingly nice. Ms Kim, the speaker for the day, was a wonderful speaker. Besides her funny stories and relevant topic points, she added performing arts into the later session of the talk. Thus, it became more of a workshop consisting of an hour plus of talk, group presentation and finally, video shooting+drama performance. It was all part and parcel of time management, allocating time resourcefully and stuffs. She even brought a whole lot of props along with her like a functioning keyboard, cute designed Chipmunk backpacks, masak masak items and baby dolls. It was a very good experience. :)

Then there's my internship application. Its been a bittersweet journey even before the internship itself. Whilst the outcome of the whole process is still pending, I kind of decided on my choice. On Thursday, as I walked out of the room after meeting my coordinator as well as under the pair of watchful eyes of another officer, I was lost for words. Funny how I could still muster the courage to meet him the next day. Everything surely happens for a reason. Regardless, I still get to keep the good learning experience and I hope to settle the whole process as soon as possible.

On the bright side, I went for my first 'job' interview last Tuesday. Yay! To me it was a significant thing in my life (although at that time I was just going with the flow all in a daze). Since I never went to any office for a formal purpose of my own, it certainly feels all grown up and ahems, formal. I had a valid reason to visit an office for the first time! Haha. :) Never mind that I sound like a rusa out of the kampung. Haha.

On the train back to Kampar, a Bollywood film was playing on tv. It was so entertaining that I was laughing and smiling throughout the show. Hahahha. Thankfully, I was not laughing alone as a girl sitting on the other end was watching the show and giggling as well. :D And as I walk to the other coach to pergi tandas, I saw another chinese girl smiling widely and engrossed in the show as well. I am not alone!! Haha.

My upcoming week will be my FYP 1 final presentation and then its finals approaching. Gotta remind myself to start studying. Hehe.

Goodbye bloggie!

Clearing datelines

As I was driving home alone that day, the 'Balik Kampung' song came onto the radio. I just had to sing it when the 'Oh oh ohh!!' part arrived. Hahaha. It was a pretty boring ride that spontaneity lit up at that instant and what more, being in the little rectangular box on my own. (rectangular box = car)

The next 2 weeks is going to be countless late nights. The thought itself makes me shudder. Eeks! Juggling between the tight schedule of meeting assignment datelines and sticking my nose in lecture notes/ books for exams. Thesis, 4 assignments due and another 3 midterms in the midst.

My upcoming midterm is this Saturday, 2 days from now. There's a disparity between Tax and Advance Tax. Hope I can get through it. Dua hari lagi. Bless me!!

Me Before You. I got to watch it. Someone posted the whole movie on FB so I had the chance to watch online. Yay! Nvm if I think its 'not supposed to' be there on FB laa. haha. I'd rate it 2.8/5 stars. Nobody really cuts the stars but I'm going to do that. Haha. Won't start another debate on the euthanasia issue which has received lots of debate in its movie reviews since the movie's release. But what say you? I have a varying opinion about it. Overall, I give it a fair 2.8/5 for the moviegoer and purely entertainment perspective. Hee.

I'll update my blog next time when I have the time. Then, I'll do a recap bout what's happened and happening to me. Lol. Byebye~

Spilling whats in mind

         I had a written draft earlier which is much more lengthy than the one now. As I was skimming through the earlier post, I felt it was perhaps too much negativity and I shouldn't spread too much of my grouchy vibes about. Remember the technique KISS? I guess this post is the KISS version of it. KISS as in keep it short and simple.

Feeling regretful over certain things:

1. Resit for UBS Course during the term break. It wasn't our fault that this happened. It was due to technical errors. I'm not sure what made me regret more. The fact that I missed my dad's birthday sitting for an exam that didn't even make it through or that I need to read up on everything again because I forgot the steps to generate those accounts. Aneyo!
2. My finals.
3. People. Why couldn't I be more pleasant that time? It wasn't about me being mean. It was just me not being very nice or cheerful to one or two people and I distanced myself away from them. Now that I realise it, I think its too late.
4. Focus. I was so caught up with things (meetings, assignments, etc) and spontaneous outings during the semester that I lost focus on my main priorities. Of course, I really did enjoy myself during those casual yumchas; outings what not, sprung out just like that. However, there were slightly too many distractions especially towards my finals that kept me away from preparing adequately well.


       Then, of course, on another note. Casual conversations with my mom end up to be pretty meaningful as well as cheeky ones. Haha. I found out that ants dislike lemons and cucumbers so that's why my mom places them in a row along the kitchen windows.

        She was telling me about a documentary which she came across and to my surprise, it really did got me thinking awhile. It was about Bargaining. How we bargain with roadside stalls, at morning markets (vegetable stalls, fruit stalls) and in night markets on holidays trips and stuff, with traders who are just trying to make a living out of what they sell. And when we get a discount, we walk away happily with our discounted goods without realizing how we've taken away the daily income they could have earn. Why do we so often bargain with them even if its for a few cents. Like 20,30 cents? We forget that they too need an income to sustain for their children, their families, or themselves, and we're delighted with the outcome of our bargains. And yet, when we walk into large retail shops like Padini, Toms and what not, we do not bargain with these businesses? We simply take up the discounts that they have on offer. Of course, there's nothing wrong to bargain because the truth it, who doesn't like cheaper things right?? Hahaha. And as an individual consumer for retail businesses, our purhcases are just a part of a large group of consumers. With that said, it does give an eye-opening reminder that makes us think about how such apparent events takes place in our everyday life and we don't really give much thought about them. Its also an important lesson about the way we lead our lives. So actually, if next time, if i happen to bargain something and can't get the price I want, I won't feel too upset about it because I'll think of this story. Haha :) Well, retail outlets are a totally different subject matter!! Hehee

        In the car today, we had another funny conversation too. How after cleaning the garden, my mom wanted to get McD's sundaes to cool down. She asked me if i had money with me as she left hers at home, I checked my purse and said I did. RM20 so okay. Off we go. Its enough to get the 3 sundaes that mom had in mind. We went for drive through and the staff took our order. I topped the 3 sundaes that with a medium fries. Then, I said 'That's all'. My mom then commented, 'Even if you wanted to order more, you can't'. (She meant I didn't have extra money left). I said 'Can la. Still got some money.' She said, 'Aiya, suffer in silence. Seeing my daughter treat me for sundae also need to check if she has enough money or not.' Hahhaa. It got me laughing. As we got our take away orders, we left McD and headed home. On the way near a junction (that previously sells durians by the roadside), my mom looked out for the shop and asked 'Oh, got durian or not?? I was looking out for it keenly too. Both of us were enthusiastic while spotting it. 'Oh, not open already mi..'. 'Aiya, cannot eat already. But if I want to buy also we no money what!' She said teasingly. 'Only can smell the smells that are free while the rest is not'. And at the back of my head, I was thinking ya horr. The last time we bought durians, it costed rm40++ and as I think of the change which I put back in my purse earlier. Hmm. about few ringgit left. That time, I just couldn't helped but laughed out loud. :D After some time, mom said, 'As we grow up, we realized how important money is'. I couldn't agree more. Haha.

Morning Joy

When you wake up to find that half-boiled eggs are served for breakfast on the table. What a delight!

Just a short entry before i continue studying. Three more papers to go and when time's ticking, you realize how precious every hour counts. Yes, you count by the hours and in fact, even by the minutes. Not so much of the days anymore. You plan and if it fails, you make a new plan.

My brothers and relatives were back in Ipoh for the weekend. That's the procrastination period. When you're trying to study at one corner and your second bro is playing 'Assassin Creed' at an adjacent table to yours. You just can't help but to admire awhile at the beautiful graphics, ask how the game works and even bob your head a little to the rhythm of the upbeat music that's playing as the background of the game. You feel like you're in Italy with those pieces. Hehe.

Its been really long since I last left a post here so here you go. Haha

That's it.

Til another time, take care blog. Take care people! :)

Rantss

The new semester began and its crazy how time flies. This Monday is Week 5 of the semester already. Its really true when someone says Chinese New Year will pass by before you know it. One minute, everyone's rushing back to their hometowns to gather for this festive occasion, and the next moment, everyone's rushing back for work and studies. 

This CNY was fully spent with family and relatives. First day at my uncle's, 2nd day travelling to Penang for 3D and 2N vacation as well and the final 1 to 2 days at Ipoh wif fams. Didn't get to meet up with friends this time. Feeling guilty. I could have made it for the night part however, was quite exhausted to go out. :/ Hopefully, next round yah guys. :)    

A bit reluctant to go back Kampar because the next few weeks will be the busiest. Cramming facts for midterms and meeting assignment datelines. Ohnoo. However, trying to stay motivated to consistently keep up with the pace. Year 2 loo. 

Anyways, a recap on my past few weeks la.

Week 1
I headed back to Kampar a day before classes began. Tidied up my room like an aunty for almost 2-3 hours. It felt good once the room had more room and was more liveable?? Haha. I was prepared for my only class and first lecture the following day. At the same time, I was hoping to drop a particular subject and bid for another one.

So when the next day came and the registration system re-opened sharp at 9a.m., I was one of the few gan cheong students trying to log into the course registration system to change my subject asap. Tried several times to login and in my head I was thinking, 'Oh, I don't think there'll be space anymore'. To my luck, there was one space left. Fortunately, its also the particular slot I wanted. Woohoo! It means someone probably dropped that subject thus, leaving an opening slot. Immediately, I replaced my alternative with the initial choice. In my heart, I was thanking the student who dropped it. Because of him/her, I could get it. Thankiu. :) Huhuu. Therefore, I have no classes on Monday. I can drive into uni this round too because I got a car sticker this sem. After 2 consecutive sems of walking, I can save the trouble of getting my shoes soak in water after a heavy downpour. Walking however is not really a problem for me anymore, I have adapted to it! :D

I was unsure whether to bring forward a final semester elective as well, International Trade. Somehow, my intuition tells me to take it now so I'll be more relax in future. Initially, some reasons made it seem like taking this subject would be a drawback and had me re-considering. Finally? I'm still proceeding with this elective on my own. Gogogo! :)

On the same Monday, while waiting for the registration system to open, suddenly felt my right eye was itchy and a bit sticky with fluid too. I caught an eye infection for the next 2 weeks. Initially, I didn't want to see a doctor but when it started becoming painful, I consulted a doctor to get some medication. During that time, people in uni who bumped into me would asked me why, what happened to your eye? I told them 'I became a vampire'. Hehee.

There was this thingy I applied for to go for a UN Leadership symposium as well. Actually, I was just trying my luck and play play. After some things happened, the Sg Long officer personally called me to attend an interview. It happened to be during class hours and my first Taxation lecture. On my personal choice, I didn't want to skip it because I never skipped classes for these kinda reasons. Moreover, considering the costly travelling expenses even with a partial scholarship, I didn't go for it. When I think of the officer, I felt regretful because she was such a pleasant, nice and helpful lady. I knew she took the trouble to go the extra mile when she didn't had to. Aiseh. On my part, I shouldn't make the mistake again of taking bold indecisive moves.

On one of the days after evening class was over, Ann Gie and Wan Siang asked if I could fetch them back home. I said okay ah. Guess what? As we walked to the block where I parked my car, my friend spotted it first. 'Hey Crystal, your car tyre punctured'. It was after 6.30 plus already and many phone calls were exchanged to get hold the contact number of a car workshop dealing with tyre punctures. The problem with Proton Saga cars. Their tyres are really hard to pull out. I had a puncture before and that experience was far more dreadful cos it happened at night. Anyway, the workshops we contacted already closed shop for the day. Some passer bys (on bicycles) came to our aid while car drivers only offered their curiosity and drove away. Zzz. Haha. A pair of guys came to help us before class but left earlier. They were soaking in sweat as they rushed for their tutorial. An hour later, they passed by the same route (This means their class is over) and we were *ahem* still there. Hahaa. They came to offer their help again and even accidentally left their house keys on my car boot and cycled home. Omo. What a mess. Thankfully, through a friend, her car of friends manage to help me get a mechanic still available. They even helped to return the bunch of house keys back to the bicycle owner. Another couple offered their help too. Felt thankful to all who helped. Had dinner with Ann Gie and the rest and headed to Westcity for sponsorship meeting later. The place there was a steaming sauna and by the end of the day, it surely felt like a quite a long one. Wait for part two. Haha.

After that, we had a first WAY meeting for the sem. Besides our main agenda, we had an exchanged gifts session among the committees. All of us were asked to prepare a gift for our secret angel. It was exciting to see many presents laid out in the center of the living room. It felt like Christmas with an invisible Christmas tree. Hehees. Besides, who doesn't love presents aite? I DO. HAHA :) Anyway, it was an entertaining session as some committees left out the name labels for their secret angels, there were overlapping receivers and stuffs like that. Everyone was shouting in excitement when a guy received the largest gift among us all. We anticipated much as we remove the present wrappers and guess what, it definitely lifted up to our expectations. It was a label wording 'Mr. Right' on a rectangular, fluffy pillow! Wkaka.

My gift was a pretty notebook. Haven't used it cos reluctant and so its kept in my book rack for now. On another day, I received a CNY greeting card too which was printed in pin yin and the sender wrote me a pretty humorous and thoughtful note. It was a really short one saying that he/she knows I don't know Chinese so he/she suggested to get someone to help translate for me the text. Hahaha.

During the weekends, I didn't go back home as I signed up for a course. Actually, my dad's birthday fall during that weekends and 2 days later, my 2nd bro's. I only realized the date later after registration and it was too late to get refunded. Surely, I felt sorry for missing their celebrations and was feeling regretful for joining.

Anyway, it was a UBS Accounting Course. It was a 2 days intensive course which consisted of a computer, handbook and lots of typing. We sat in front of the computer for hours and when lunch break came, I never felt so glad. Lunch on both days were appetizing because it was Indian cooking mixed-dishes style. Chap fan in pedas version. Yumyums! :) After 2 days of scenario questions attempts, we had an online practical exam which lasted for 2 and a half hours. When the workshop was over, Kitkat and me was so happy and relieved. We decided to go for a movie for a break. Haha.

Don't get me wrong, the workshop was quite practical. Yet, it was..exhausting to sit there for long hours doing typing jobs. In short, can we pick up the software on our own? Definitely, if you have the handbook and software. So is the course worth it? Yes, for first-timers. Its pretty useful to attend one workshop to get a hang of it. Once we have the fundamentals, its easier to learn any other software kut. Besides, we learn how to classify the accounts based on systematic coding and that's the best takeaway for me in my opinion. Plus, if I were to learn it on my own, surely it would have taken more than 2 days one. Hahaha. Overall, its a useful course as a basic guide la.

Week 2
Everything was mostly normal except...

My car needed maintenance again. It needed a change of car battery and after everything was settled, it made me missed my international trade tutorial. My coursemates would have thought I'm such a lazy girll but got solid reason okehh. Haha.

On Thursday, I went to Teluk Intan to find sponsorship for the WAY event. Its not the first time I've felt it but especially after that day, I realized being multi-lingual is an added advantage. Not everyone speaks the same language which is why being versatile makes it beneficial. Somehow, speaking in someone else's mother tongue or sharing a same background helps to connect people more easily. We dealt with the community in Malay, English, Mandarin and Cantonese. The problem was interacting in Hokkien and Teo Chew, neither of us could speak these well enough. Hehe.

On Saturday, the few of us attended a pre-CNY celebration held in the campus. All the performances were in Mandarin. My friend jio me only otherwise I wouldn't its unlikely I would have gone for sure. Haha. The beatboxing was probably my favourites. A bunch of students acted an adaptation of the famous Journey to The West show too and it was quite entertaining. Haha. At night, we surprised Kitkat too for her birthday and the next day, had a WAY bonding trip. Lazy to blog the details liao. We went for breakie then to Lost World of Tambun and dinner. The exciting moment when I felt we came together as a group was at the large open pool. There was music jamming by a DJ at the front and we were all just grooving to the beat, doing silly poses in the pool and waving our hands in the air. More and more of the crowd joined in after us. Wkaka. It really felt like a good bonding experience during that moment. :) The entrance fee to Tambun is pricey though, RM45 leh.

Week 3
Had one lousy day and all became fine la. :)

Anyway, these past 3 weeks are like car maintenance week. I got my 4 tyres changed on 2 different ocassions and one more time to the workshop for a normal car service. Got a bit paranoid with my car also dee. After it all, I had more experiences dealing with mechanics and felt grateful to those who were able to provide me with sound assurance for my car. Of course, the maintenance work too.

A day before we went back for our CNY break, a bunch of us had a spontaneous evening reunion too. We had a Chinese dishes dinner. We planned to watch Ola Bola after that. Unfortunately, all the seats were sold out except for the first two rows, so Suet Leng suggested to go to a nearby carnival instead.
Waaaa. It was enjoyable. Felt like an excited kid while playing the bumper rides. It was so much fun that we sat on it for 4 times! Hahaha. Another ferris-wheel kind of ride was quite scary because it make a creaking noise that me and Vern was shouting when we were at the top of the ride. No joke. Then we could see the bystanders on the ground there also smiling/giggling in our direction. Why do even pay for rides to scare ourselves?? Aisehh. The atmosphere there was surprisingly quite good for a small town. There were several game booths with pretty attractive prizes to grab. All of us had something to bring home in the end. I think all of us really enjoyed ourselves. Save Ola Bola for next time.

I think it is a long long post. Just spilling here in case I forget in future. If u read it til here, I salute you liao. Haha.

Last but not least, Happy Monkey Chinese New Year! :D
