ANOTHER ADDITION to My SIDEBAR

If you scroll down for a little and take a look at my sidebar to the left, you'll see 'Wish List of the Hybrid' (before the 'Desires of the Hybrid').

Well... it's very apparent what this list is about.
Sigh... those are some of the items that I wish I have.. namely the first being the top priority.

This list will definitely be updated as time goes by.

heeh! ^_^

Going wild in MADAGASCAR (Movie Review)

Starring: Ben Stiller, Chris Rock, David Schwimmer, Jada Pinkett Smith, Andy Richter, Sacha Baron Cohen, Cedric the Entertainer
Director: Eric Darnell, Tom McGrath
Studio: DreamWorks Pictures
Producer: Mirelle Soria, Teresa Cheng
Screenplay: Billy Frolick, Mark Burton

From DreamWorks Animation SKG comes the new computer-animated comedy "Madagascar", starring the voices of BEN STILLER ("Meet the Fockers", "Meet the Parents"), CHRIS ROCK ("Chris Rock: Never Scared"), DAVID SCHWIMMER (TV's "Friends") and JADA PINKETT SMITH ("Collateral").

Alex the Lion (Stiller) is the king of the urban jungle as the main attraction at New York's Central Park Zoo. He and his best friends Marty the Zebra (Rock), Melman the Giraffe (Schwimmer) and Gloria the Hippo (Pinkett Smith) have lived their entire lives in blissful captivity, complete with lavish meals and their own park views.

Not content to leave well enough alone, Marty allows his curiosity to get the better of him and, with the help of some prodigious penguins, makes his escape to explore the world he's been missing, intending to return before morning. In the middle of the night, Alex, Melman and Gloria discover their friend missing and decide the only course of action is to break out the zoo and get Marty back home before anyone notices they're gone.

Even in New York, a lion, giraffe and hippopotamus wandering the streets and riding the subway are bound to attract some attention. Alex, Melman and Gloria manage to track Marty down in Grand Central Station, but before they can catch the train home, they are darted, captured, crated and put on a ship to Africa by well-meaning humans who think they should be freed from the stress of New York life.

When those plotting penguins sabotage the ship, Alex, Marty, Melman and Gloria find themselves washed ashore on the exotic island of Madagascar. Now, these native New Yorkers have to figure out how to survive in the wild and discover the true meaning of the phrase "It's a jungle out there".

"Madagascar" also features the voices of Sacha Baron Cohen (HBO's "Da Ali G Show"), Cedric the Entertainer ("Barbershop") and Andy Richter ("Elf").

The computer-animated comedy is directed by Eric Darnell ("Antz") and Tom McGrath ("The Ren & Stimpy Show"), making his feature film directorial debut. Mireille Soria ("Spirit: Stallion of the Cimarron") produced "Madagascar", with Teresa Cheng serving as co-producer. The screenplay was written by Mark Burton & Billy Frolick and Eric Darnell & Tom McGrath. (Synopsis retrieved from "About the Film: Synopsis")

This movie is just great, man... you'll be laughing nearly the whole time!
I just love this movie.. very much. The comedy, the graphics, the casts & characters, the emotions... it was all just right for me!

Let's start off with its story.
The story was just right and proceeded quite well in my opinion.
Of course there were much illogical details to the movie, but then again, that what makes it a comedy.
The jokes and humors were just excellent and very well delivered, and had gotten the whole audience (when I went to the cinema) in a hysterical feat in many parts of the movie.
Besides all the laughters, there is a plot in this story, a good one too. I felt really touched by the emotion portrayed through Alex's caring, affectionate heart when he said, "I don't want to hurt you." when nearing the end of the movie.

The characters were just lovable... each of character were different in terms of personality, attitude and lifestyle... haha!
Alex the luxury-spoiled, city big cat, Marty the lively, playful, 'wild' black-striped quadruped, Gloria the physically sensual and mighty river-horse, Melman the edgy, health-conscious, human-knowledgeable long neck, etc.
however, despite the differences, they all share one quality.. they're all able to make you laugh.
My favorite character is Melman, not cause Ross from FRIENDS does his voice, but it's just the character himself... for me, Melman was just my fave.



The four caught outside the zoo.


Ben Stiller, the voice of Alex the Lion


Chris Rock, the voice of Marty the Zebra


Jada Pinkett Smith, the voice of Gloria the Hippopotamus


David Schwimmer, the voice of Melman the Giraffe

The graphics were great as well. Though I don't mean great as in the animals look like the actual animals in reality. In fact, if you take a look at the animal character's faces, you can see much resemblance they had with their voice actors/actresses, the most apparent would be that of Alex-Stiller and Marty-Rock.



King Julian (Sacha Baron Cohen), the one with the 'crown', his right-hand lemur Maurice (Cedric the Entertainer), and Mort (Andy Richter) the cutest amongst the lemurs of their tribe on Madagascar


Sacha Baron Cohen, the voice of King Julian


Cedric the Entertainer, the voice of Maurice


Andy Richter, the voice of the cute, puppy-dog-eyed Mort

I definitely would recommend ANYONE to watch this movie. You are going to have a heck of a good time laughing til even your stomach can hurt!
haha!


"I like to MOVE-IT-MOVE-IT!
I like to MOVE-IT-MOVE-IT!
I like to MOVE-IT-MOVE-IT!
You like to..."
~ King Julian

The show must go on!

Wow... been a while since I updated my blog of my life...
hmm... I'll just update what I see I would want to be remembered.

Sunday... I basically just caught up with some onlining stuff.... including the blogging...

Monday... just usual day at campus.. usual as in classes and homework and hanging with friends, etc...

Tuesday... ah.. this day, something out of the ordinary... ordinary from the 'usual' that I just talked about...

Today the OMACHI fundraising event happened for the second time!
Starting from 10am til 4pm.... selling the sweet chocolate puddings and the omachi..
the sells at the beginning were slow and not going well... but came afternoon, we were able to sell out all of the chocolate puddings and omachi by around 3.30pm, much thanks to Izzah honestly.

After my class, 5.30pm, headed straight for the cheerleading and dance practise at the Multi-Purpose Hall..
Today's attendance was not much, but we didn't exactly mind, since it was understandable that the absentees have their reasons to not be able to come (i.e. transportation home) and it is easier for us to focus on teaching those that came.

after all the practises, got to eat kueh chap with Roger at DPS...
then got to join Abel, Iqbal, Diana, Johnna, Angeline & Tompoq at Leez's Cafe.
today, May 24th, is Iqbal's birthday!! they were having a small celebration there.
when Roger & I came and had a chess match... and yay, I beat him.. hehe...
anyway, after the match, we headed back after enjoying the birthday cake...

Wednesday, I left my Writing & Research Skills 062 class less than half an hour earlier to join the others at the cafeteria for the Gawaii & Keamatan Food Promotions.
This event, jointly organised by CV! and Ciao Mien, was to promote the Gawaii celebration amongst the Curtin community on campus.
There were performances from our cultural and modern dance groups, and most importantly, performance from our CV! band!! Woohoo!!
you can say that this was their very first official performance.
the performance was all right but there's room to improve...
the event only lasted for over one hour and a half then everything sort of slowed down...

Thursday, yesterday, drove to school without a lisence... haha... since my wallet has been missing for a long time now and still no news about it...
so.. I've lost my Student ID, my Identity Card, my driver's lisence, RM50++, some miscellaneous card collections, some passport-sized photos and some momentos of National Service... sigh....
anyway... this day was so... sigh...
after the Physics lab session, I temporarily transformed myself into a studious nerd. looking through my Chemistry lecture notes and jotting down the calculation formulaes and trying to understand and revise what I knew...
then test time, at 3-4pm.... for Chemistry.. sigh... didn't do well... sigh... I can predict that I've lost over half of the full mark already.. sigh...
then.. one hour free.... stayed in my studious form, this time for Engineering Maths.... the test was at 5.. yeah.. after my one hour free period... sigh...
but at least, it wasn't as bad...
got to revise through the covered topics... and then went for the exam...
the exam was held at the Lecture Theatre and turned out that students of Engineering Maths 062 will be taking the exam along with the students of Engineering Maths 061...
so got to meet up with lots of my peers.. hehe...

anyway, Maths test was quite all right for me... but I know I've lost about 3 marks for one question which I blew when I gave the wrong formulae... sigh.. the other questions though I'm not too sure....
but it should be all right....
then I stayed back for a Student Council meeting that night...
got to catch up with my Math homework while waiting together with Benet & Kimmy...
when the meeting time came, we had our meeting at the Student Council room.. instead of the Council Room...
reason being that the room's air-conditioning was not working, so it'll be hot to be sitting in there...
anyway, the meeting went on... with a goal set by Benet to end at 9.30pm.. a two hours meeting, instead of our first two THREE-hour meetings...
the meeting went off... some part serious, some part mischievous... and yay! indeed the meeting was done before 9.30pm!
I drove on home and then had much trouble before getting my sleep... sigh....

NEW ADDITION TO MY SIDEBAR!!

If you look at the very bottom of my siderbar, you'll see a numbered list of linked titles.

These are 18 video games that I might wanna own, but most importantly, these are the games that I wanna PLAY!!
Most of these games are RPG (Role-Playing Games).. my favorite video game genre.

Linked to each game is a review of the game from my favorite Video Game Show, X-Play!!
I trust the reviews from there cause I know their reviews are based on general standard and not personal bias.
So, if the reviewer of a Role-Playing game prefers sports games instead, his/her review will be based upon general perspective and not his/her own preference.

So, those of you looking for a present for me... these are just some of the things you can get me... hehe!

The Miri City Chapter

The Miri City chapter... a chapter that I will definitely not forget so easily...

Allow me to start from Monday...
I came to school early with my brother to do my usual shift in the Student Council room...
then, spent time at the CV booth... nothing much was happening there... and I had nothing to do...
I had assignments, but I needn't do them finish within this week (though it'd be so much better if I did)....
so it finally got me to decide to do something that I've not been doing for a long time.... writing my story.. I wrote for hours at the cafeteria...

I decided to write a novel version of that SPM 2003 essay of mine (that was posted some time ago)...
I've already planned out how the story will be and how the character development will be...
just hope that it'll turn out all right...
Chapter ONE, which is partially taken from that essay itself, had been written and added...
Chapter TWO will talked about something in the past... which I can't wait to finish...
and then Chapter THREE I will have to see how the end of Chapter TWO is..
hehe... I got Diana to read through what I've written.. her comment, "I just wish you would write finish the story" or something along that line...
haha... she just can't wait to find out what happens to one of my character.. hehe... some of you read my essay would know which one... hehe...

anyway.. that evening, had a meeting with Abel, along with most of the CV! EXCO members and CV!A...
got to discuss on lots of things... our last meeting was few weeks ago at Daryll's house...
after the meeting, the girls did their dance performance in front of Abel and everyone else there... the Cultural and modern dance, which would be performed on the night of Miri's Proclaimation as a city, May 19th, 2005...

Tuesday.... came to campus again... got to get into the Student Council Room first that morning for my usual shift... and got to use the computer to do some online and also work...
worked for hours... before I left...
spent time at the cafeteria, writing a little of my story... this was the time that I had Diana read the story...
then meeting with Mr. John Rowe, the Head of Student Services of Curtin down at Perth...
he wanted to meet with the Student Council to hear from the student representatives of anything regarding the services of the Student Services here...
lots of negative feedbacks, unfortunately... though true enough, all of them are usual to find in such work, as he said.. just a matter of degree....
hopefully, the Student Services will improve after this...

after that meeting, it was time to proceed with the dance performances...
a rehearsal was happening at Miri City Fan for all the performance that will be happening on the 19th...
there, got to meet with one of the MCs for the event on the night itself... who turned out to be my Primary 6 teacher, Mr. Tajuddin b. Ramli... not sure if that's the correct spelling, but pronounciation is definitely there...
the girls did all right for their rehearsal performance...

after that, some of us went for dinner at Sultana.... Abel, Sara, KC, VJ, Iqbal, Tompoq & I.. most of the girls headed on home...
later, only Abel, Sara, Iqbal & I were left... we were, very later, joined by that fellow, who was one of the judges for the Keling competition last week.. didn't catch his name...
hahaha... quite an enjoyable guy... Abel so enjoyed his company... haha!
anyway... I got to go back to shower before going back to join them before we all left...
I was allowed to stay overnight at Iqbal's cause I needed to do some work...

Abel had suggested that the boys join to dance as well at the end.... after informing some of the girls about it... it was agreed...
so at Iqbal's, we added the song, 'Just a lil while' by Janet Jackson... and got our dance steps back for a while..
when left only me & Iqbal... I did some work on his computer... couldn't finish it though... sigh...
slept at 4.40am... and then wake up at 9.30am I think... not sure...

ok.. before I continue on and on about my days.... here's a little something to lighten yourselves up...
a picture that I found somewhere in Multiply...



Wednesday.... May 18th 2005..
After leaving with Iqbal... got to join with him, some of the cultural dancers... Diana, Kelly, Genesis and Angeline out to buy stuffs....
after everything, I headed home to shower et cetera... before I joined them later at Miri City Fan for the second and FINAL rehearsal...
we did our thing and Abel got a lot of good comments from his friends about our performance...
but then, we were told by the organiser to cancel out our cultural dance....
we all got so frustrated by that and were arguing to keep with it...
reasons after reasons were given to us about why we should do so... Abel was so frustrated about it...
in the end, we got to persuade them to just allow us to shorten our time...

after that, we went to eat at the coffee shop near Abel's house... and next to PETRONAS station...
Jimmy, Lis, Sara, KC, Abel, Iqbal, Diana, Kimmy, Tompoq, Robert, Angeline, Zachary, VJ, Debbie, Kelly & Genesis.. I think that's all of us that night..
after dinner there, headed to Iqbal's house again... to re-do the song so that it'd be shorter...
had a string of luck thankfully and the song came out all right and shortened...
Iqbal later sent me home, accompanied by VJ....
I slept at about 2am...

Thursday, May 19th 2005
I woke up about ten minutes or so before 6am... and rushed to shower and prepare myself.... Bay arrived to pick me up even before I was done...
about five minutes or so later, we then went off to pick some other people...
dance practise that morning at 7pm, before anyone have any classes...
some of us didn't make it, but most of us DID practise...
later that morning, Diana & I got to join Abel to check out how our float for the Miri City Parade (May 20th 2005) was doing...
when we finally came there, we were very disappointed with what we saw.....
the float was not as Abel had imagined... it was plainly very upsetting for us...
got to clear things up with the people working on the float and got them to agree to do as much as they could to improve it...
then we went off...

Dropped Diana at Marriot before Abel & I had a little of window shopping at Parkson...
Abel bought a new pair of black sport pants and a new black Nike T-shirt...
then stopped by for a little at my place before we arrived back on campus...
there was supposed to be a final dance practise, but the cultural dancers were off doing their costumes and make, so only the modern dancersdid their practise... before we all went off separately to do our own make-up stuffs... haha...
I took a shower at Iqbal's.. VJ came over a little later... and soon we went off to meet up with everyone else at the Admin building..
soon, we left together to Miri City Fan... had a major problem of parking the cars... but we finally got together and waited for our turn to perform...
The moment came quite a while later and we did our thing!! It was excellent, though the audience gave no reaction.
Just some seconds later, the Muslim's usual prayer started... phew! just on time...
we stuck around longer, taking photos and watching ourselves performing in the camcorder...
Soon, we separated into two groups... one group headed to McDonald to eat, while the other headed with Abel to eat at Sultana...
There to join Abel were me, Roger, KC, Snow Jae, VJ, Iqbal, Robert, Genesis, Zeta, her friend, Kelly & Jimmy...
some time later, Tompoq joined us... and some time later, we walked back to Miri City Fan...
We enjoyed ourselves all the way til the Miri City countdown..
the fireworks, the singing and dancing, etc...
then we walked to Cheerie Berries... I got to join them to dancing for a while.. before coming out...
after that, heading back home with Roger...

Friday, May 20th 2005
Morning woke up at 9am... got myself prepared and then left for breakfast at Boulevard food court with Roger...
after that, went to campus... got to online on the computer for a while... and then we went to meet up with everyone who were involved with that night's Miri City Parade...
then turned out I forgot my Mr. O-Week 2005 sash... had a little trouble of what to do from there... but thankfully, Eddy was able to help...
I waited for Eddy & Tompoq to be done with their Friday prayer... and then I got home...
I took my shower and got all of my necessary items... and then we got to Dynasty hotel...
join the guys at Room 312.... Everyone was so busy to get themselves dressed and make-up...
Iqbal suddenly called and told me that he'll be picking me to go and get the float... which we did together with our Curtin bus driver... (I don't know his name.. Mr. Jonathan?)
when we got to where the float was, turned out that it was ALMOST done...
had lots of final check-ups, lightings were looked at... almost two hours later, the check-ups were done and we finally got to move...
I chose to ride on the float as we drove all the way to our starting point of the procession... boy, was it an enjoyable ride.. hehe!
lots of people drove by, and lots of people waved at me as they did.. hehe! enjoyed the wind too...

anyway, we arrived to our starting point in time and then off we went back to the hotel, for Iqbal to finish up with his dress-up...
everyone else went on ahead to the lobby and got the chance to take each other's photos...
when everyone was ready, off we went, walking to where our float was parked...
We had a LONG wait before the procession actually started...
during that time, people were going around, looking at all the floats that were there...
There was a competition for the best float or procession group for different categories... Our Curtin float was in the 3-tonnes category...
Our people wore different costumes of different cultures or countries... three that represent Malaysia (traditional costumes) {Diana, Melanie & Genesis}, two Philipines {Abel & Gretchel}, two China {Roger & Snow Jae}, one Indonesia {Debbie}, one Thailand {Joanna}, one India {VJ}, one Pakistan {Sara}, one Brunei {Tompoq}, one Korea {Daryll} & extra two more who wore the 'graduation robes' {Iqbal & I} to represent university...
With everyone in their various costumes, we stood at our positions around the float... the girls, except Diana, stood on the float itself... then all the boys, except me and Iqbal, stood at the side of the float...
Iqbal, Diana & I stood at the front of the float, Diana to be carrying the sign with our Curtin name on it... the two boys were there to accompany her and help her if need be.. plus we're the one to be guiding the driver so that he doesn't drive off into the crowd instead...
During our wait for the procession, supposedly, some judges came over and analysed our float and suffs... during that time, there had been a lot of people who cmae to us to take photos...
felt like some.. display items... haha.... but my smile was on for so long that honetly it was starting to twitch... haha.. but it was still enjoyable...
The procession began at 8.30pm... but our turn to move only came at before 10pm... since they were a lot of people and different groups that joined in the procession.... our float was numbered 72... so yeah...

The procession was long and there were a lot of spectators... the kids espeically I noticed enjoyed watching us as we come by... the boys were, as stereotypically, interested with our girls.. and even the girls were interested with some of our boys... *coughMr.Koreacoughcough*
most of us found ourselves shaking hands with many hands that night... and waving our hands at the spectators a lot and smiling even more so that night...
so much so, our arms have gone aching, our feet have practically gone numb, and even the muscles for our smile got cramp or achy too... hahah
after the long long walk, I just couldn't wait to buy something to drink and eat.... and then sit down and enjoyed the liquid going down my throat and the solid food going into my stomach...
I actually bought three drinks straight after I was done with the first one... haha... that was just how thirsty I was...
then we waited for quite a while for our Curtin bus driver to drive by with the bus from Dynasty Hotel....
We returned to the hotel to retrieve all of our stuffs that were left there.... before we headed back to campus....
most of us just slept in the cold cold bus... thank goodness for my long sleeves.. hehehe... Miss Thailand couldn't sleep cause of the cold...

I got home with Roger.... showered... drank milo and then slept.... I slept all the way til late that Saturday morning...
only to get myself to stay up cause of all the sms that's been coming in to my phone and me replying to some of them...
that afternoon, I spent all of my time online.... as my last blog had proven...
somewhere that afternoon, I've gotten to know from my mother that Curtin's float had emerged champion in its category, the 3-tonnes category... and I was like... "What?!"
it had been published in the Chinese newspaper, United Daily News....
I smsed Abel for confirmation on it... and he called me and said that it was wrong information...
and sometime later, suddenly Abel messaged the CV members to join to Desserts for some relaxation...
at that time, I had the feeling that there was good news to come and I was thinking it was possible that the information was true.... but didn't think much of it...
I joined and Abel was the one that fetched me.... then also fetched Diana...
Abel supported his argument saying that the Curtin float had the budget of only RM9,000 while the two major oil company, PETRONAS & Shell had budgets of RM65,000 & RM200,000 for their own floats...

but when at Desserts, Abel made an announcement that confirmed that Curtin DID indeed become champion of that category! WOOHOO!!
but then again, I was like... "Abel!! You cheated me!!!" haha!
it was quite an enjoying time at Desserts... with Abel, Diana, Iqbal, Sara, Daryll, VJ, Snow Jae, Serena, Tompoq, Genesis, Angeline, Zachary/LC, & Jimmy...
after Desserts, Abel, Iqbal, VJ, Daryll, Snow Jae, Serena, Jimmy & I continued the night at CM2.... a coffee shop near where my grandparents' house, which is nearby Dynasty Hotel...
Had quite a great time there... *coughMr.Koreacoughagaincough*
talk, laugh, drank, ate... lots of fun and relaxation that night......

-----------------------------------

"A family consists of those closest to you, bonded either by blood or mere friendship."
I believe I don't have to say much about this quote of mine...

Anyway... just to end my blog entry... I'd like to comment about this picture...
I was thinking that we should do this at Curtin too... hehe!

Hari Gawaii Fest Chapter

Sigh.... a few days of no online.... time for some catching up again...

Last week, wednesday.... usual at Curtin... no luck with my wallet... sheesh....
usual classes.... darn, so hard to write that persuasive essay of mine for Research & Writing Skills 062..
sigh.. 'Should vegetarianism be encouraged?'... so hard to find counter argument to go against that....

that night... Roger had invited me to join him, Adrian, Gia Rong, Kevin and others to watch XXX2... and also to try and get others to go...
after getting a few friends to join, thought to watch another movie.. Kingdom of Heaven...
tried to persuade at least Roger to join me to watch that.. but then he thought the movie's time would be too late for him so he stayed to watch XXX2 with the others...
Iqbal, Izzah, Tompoq & I headed to Bintang Plaza later and bought six tickets before having a bit of dinner...
just when we entered the theater and took our seats, Snow Jae & VJ finally arrived... and got to pass them the tickets.... then we proceeded to enjoy the movie...

A quick and simple review of the movie...
It is a good movie, plus it has historical facts in it. The story and dialogues are great.
The casts are great and strong, with the protrayal of each characters (Factual or not) greatly done.
Only problem is... that the movie's story seemed to be rushing, ever since the start... I wasn't the only one that noticed that...
Before watching, it is recommended (by me) to have an idea of the history of the crusade and the war over Jerusalem that happened I don know how long ago... otherwise, you'll be left behind very far and very quickly from the start.. like me... though I was still able to understnad basically of what was going on...

I love the characters really.... especially King Baldwin (Number what I don't remember).. he is the king who wears a mask and his body wrapped cause of his physically ill condition... I love that character the most...
cause of his calmness, his gentle and caring heart, and all that good stuffs... an inspiring king... sad indeed that such a king never live long..... sigh... that's what I feel lah..

anyway... after the movie, Iqbal sent me home and I had my sleep..

then Thursday... usual day on campus... except that evening, had CV choir practise.... our choir is progressing well it seems.. that's good!
then, after that, meeting with the rest of the Student Council.. initial plan was to have the meeting done after one or two hours later... but then... most of us are unfamiliar with how Student Council works.. so Benet often need to 'talk a lot' so that we can familiarise ourselves well enough.
after the meeting, Bay got to send me back home...

Friday... hehe.. a great day to remember... let's see..
morning... meeting with the Pro-Vice Chancellor, Prof. Graham Lodwick, Acting Dean of Curtin, Dr. Barbara Stauble & Registrar Officer, Dr. Adeline Wong.... regarding a proposed new textbook policy so that to make things at the bookshop a lot less... negative...
Prof. Graham's proposed policy seemed agreeable... wonder if it was practical though... the Student Council are now supposed to take back the proposal and see how they would think about it and how the students would feel about it...
after that, was Chemistry lab... after that, I was called to a meeting with Wong Shin Kah by Roger regarding my work in the Treasure Hunt event that was happening this coming Sunday...
I got to know my work (which was basically just running the game that was happening at my checkpoint [No. 6] and stuffs...) and just got to hang with Roger & Shin Kah... Shin Kah, by the way, was one of the SOAR Advisors of my orientation week (July Intake 2004)...
after that, got to check out where my checkpoint was gonna be.. ASEAN Bridge... at the shop right nearby that place...
then located Roger's checkpoint, Dewan Dato' Permaisuri...

after that, had to get back to campus.. I completely forgotten that I was supposed to be taking care of the Student Council room... Serena reminded me by her sms...
I did my shift together with Serena, before later Roger came...
we even spent one more hour after operating hours there... it's just so nice and comfy in there... plus the air-conditioning... hehe...
anyway, that night there was going to be this Male Beauty pageant sort of competition called the 'Keling' for male Ibans... and our dear friend and fellow CVA, Johnna was amongst the particpants for the competition..
that evening, had some problems making transportation plans... I was to follow Roger to the venue...
some time before night came, it was finally decided that Roger will also be picking up Jimmy, Oscar & Tompoq/Taufiq....
first, sent Tompoq home to shower, while the rest of us went to eat... he didn't want to eat at the time...
after our dinner, we headed back to his place and turned out he was cooking something for himself..
waited for him to be done, before we headed off to Dewan Suarah, where the competition was being held...

The competition was just one of the events being held in conjunction to the Hari Gawaii festival...
Iqbal, Diana, Abel, VJ, Snow Jae, KC & Chu Chu were there to give Johnna support as well...
We cheered loudly when Johnna finally took the stage! and even more so when Johnna was announced to have won 2nd place!!!!!! Congrats, Keling of Curtin!!
After the night's event, we headed to eat at Cafenika... before heading home to sleep.

Then Saturday... got to spend loads of time outside..
went out with Roger to buy stuffs for the Treasure Hunt event the next day..
as we were wandering around Boulevard, we met up with Tompoq, Jimmy & Eddy KK... and then later, Abel & Johnna....
that night, again went to Dewan Suarah... this time, we were coming to support our friend, Genesis, in her Kumang Orang Ulu beauty pageant competition...
we cheered as before... and at the end of the night, Genesis was announced as one of the six finalists to return tomorrow night to the conclusion of the competition.

SUNDAY!!!! The Treasure Hunt...
Johnna came to pick me up from my place and we made it to the checkpoint at ASEAN Bridge first in the morning.
set up the preparations and needed to wait for Tompoq & Eddy for the rest of the items needed...
to our surprise, one team suddenly came way earlier that we had expected!!
and just in time, Tompoq & Eddy appeared.... we rushed our preparations and ended up having our game too easy... sigh...
all 34 teams got full points from our checkpoint... after the last team, we headed off to meet up with Roger and his team at their checkpoint... turned out that one team had skipped their checkpoint cause they weren't able to locate them.. haha!
we then headed back to Boulevard.... there, we got RM10 vouchers for lunch at the food court...
We indulged ourselves there.... what an enjoyable lunch... hehe...
after spending some time at Boulevard, headed home to rest for a while... before that evening, went to Dewan Suarah...
I even got to prepare a simple sign to cheer Genesis with...
We cheered loudly again when Genesis came on stage... (so much that I believe we annoyed the few old women sitting just in front of us)
some of us waited impatiently while waiting for the results of the competition to come out...
then it finally turned out Genesis only got consolation... T_T
but she said it was fine, she had fun and she'll come back again next year for revenge.. haha!
After the event, got to drink the famous drink amongst CV members.... the infamous rice wine called Tuak... hahaha...
but I only drank about one small glassful of it... before headed on home with Iqbal, Diana, Robert, Kelly and I believe someone else... can't remember who.... was it Tompoq? I think so..

anyway... that ends this chapter... the rest of this week I will add in the next blog entry!

Great points of life

Got this from souldragon's multiply... good stuffs...

1. It hurts to love someone and not be loved in return, but what is more painful is to love someone and never find the courage to let that person know how you feel.

2. A sad thing in life is when you meet someone who means a lot to you, only to find out in the end that it was never meant to be and you just have to let go.

3. The best kind of friend is the kind you can sit on a porch swing with, never say a word, and then walk away feeling like it was the best conversation you've ever had.

4. It's true that we don't know what we've got until we lose it, but it's also true that we don't know what we've been missing until it arrives.

5. It takes only a minute to get a crush on someone, an hour to like someone, and a day to love someone but it takes a lifetime to forget someone.

6. Don't go for looks; they can deceive. Don't go for wealth; even that fades away. Go for someone who makes you smile because it only takes a smile to make a dark day seem bright.

7. Dream what you want to dream; go where you want to go; be what you want to be; because you have only one life and one chance to do all the things you want to.

8. Always put yourself in the other's shoes. If you feel that it hurts you, it probably hurts the other too.

9. A careless word may kindle strife; a cruel word may wreck a life; a timely word may level stress; a loving word may heal and bless.

10. The happiest of people don't necessarily have the best of everything, they just make the most of everything that comes their way.

11. Love begins with a smile, grows with a kiss, ends with a tear. When you were born, you were crying and everyone around you was smiling. Live life so that when you die...you are the one smiling and everyone around you is crying.

D4mn 1t!!!!!!! So upset now!! Plus my eyes so tired.... Sheesh!

Sigh.. my eyes are so tired.... and I am so upset....... sh!t....

Sunday night.. after I was done updating my blog.. I got to chat with Nellie, my ex-secondary schoolmate.... turned out that she and some friends of hers were planning to join a drama competition that was happening in August or later...
she asked me for my help.... and of course, I agreed... I love getting involve with drama & theatre....
on the plus side, this isn't about stage drama... but filming!
turned out that the competition is of filmed drama...
got to discussed with her online about the script....
she and the others had decided to start off this project after their final exams in early June...
oh boy.. gonna be busy then for me then... probably...

yesterday, Monday, nothing much...
morning came to school with my brother... at 10am, had to take my shift to take care of the Student Council room... for an hour... Ling was there too for the shift....
spent my time there working or a summary of the script for the drama (of my idea) so that Nellie could check it out and mix with her own idea/s...
after that hour, continued working on that script summary of mine at the CV booth...
was done soon enough.... then just hung around there... before heading for class at 1pm....
after class, joined back at the CV Booth.... did my homework and stuffs....
got to be with Kimmy, Michelle, Jimmy, Eddy, Abel, Diana, Melanie, Angeline, others....
got to spend my time on campus til night time, cause my brother was going back late that time, and so I thought to stay back and do some work too...
Abel had just told me a few things to do and Izzah has finally confirmed with me the next OMACHI fund raising event date.... which is Tuesday, May 24th, 2005...
got to finish my work early that night..... then spent time doing some things... before I headed home with my brother.......

then today, Tuesday, morning came to campus.... as yesterday, spent my time at the cafeteria for a while before 10am, I went to take my shift to take care of the Student Council room...
an hour of doing my work on the computer, then off I went for class...
after class... took care of my homework... besides that, was surprised to find so much ruckus at the cafeteria...
turned out that Jimmy finally was able to initiate his idea of having a 'Music station' at the cafeteria at the CV Booth..
so now, things would be like how they do it on the radio or MTV or Channel V....
you make your request and dedication, we'll play the song of your choice... free of charge... no need to even pay for pos since there's no need for that.... all you need is a pen and one of our available forms...
however, this was the first time such a thing was held... and thus I got to notice that it wasn't progressing as good... sigh... need to observe further performances some more before I jump to conclusions...
but at least, they got the idea of it down basically....

then two different classes from 3 til 5.30pm... first class was Chemistry and the lecturer gave a Pop Quiz... Ahh!!
luckily, the questions weren't too difficult... and I was allowed to refer to some notes... so no problem here....
anyway... 5.30pm... I had thought to go and grab something to eat... but then, meeting with Jimmy & Eddy at the cafeteria... they reminded me that the CV! Cheerleading and Dance group practises were happening at 5.30pm... Ah!! so immediately went off with them to the multi-purpose hall where the practise was done...

sigh... cheerleading practise.. there were more girls than boys that attended..... so much trouble as most of the boys are still not familiar with the steps...
As the cheerleading steps mostly requires cooperation between two partners (boy and girl), it troubled me so much to have to practise with the girls... and honest to say, I'm not physically capable to carry most of them for one particular step (the swinging part).... SIGH...
then dance practise.... well... the boys' part was progressing all right... we finally got some new steps in for the boys to do, together with the girls...
before, we were having problems figuring out steps for the boys to do, since most of the dance steps created by Gretchel were more suitable for girls than boys...
though sadly.. there weren't much boys there to learn with us.. sigh... seven of them (Roger, Eddy, Jimmy, Tompoq, Albert Lau, Derek & Guan Thai).. and then there was me, Iqbal & VJ.... Abel was there to learn along with us too...
sigh..... it was hard.. but at least, we're progressing.. YAY!!

sigh.... then came the damn frustration for me...
I got my stuffs... and then got to join Abel, Roger, Eddy, Tompoq & Jimmy out to eat dinner....
at the end of dinner, when about to pay for the food, I just realised my wallet wasn't with me...
thought maybe i left it in Roger's car... checked... no.... Abel's car, since earlier I got to ride his car for a bit.. nope...
maybe I didn't check properly.... checked Roger's car again.. still no....
D@MN 1T!!!
came back home, got to sms Abel to help look through his car again to see if my wallet was there...
he replied no.... D@MN 1T!!!
I was feeling so upset and uncomfortable as I was online.... then, talking with Nellie... she triggered my urge to drive back to campus and look for my wallet.... at two possible places that the wallet could be...
got permission to drive to campus from my mother....
one hour later after I left... I came back home................................ mission failed.....
my wallet was not at those two places.......................................................................................

I am so upset now... d4mn it... plus my eyes are dry and tired.........
d4mn it... over RM50 is in that wallet... then my IC card.. my driving license... some FF card collections there too.... my latest passport size photos (the one for Student Council)... and then some more...
D4MN 1T!!!!!
sigh... two possibilities of where my wallet be...
ONE.... hiding in Abel's car... maybe he didn't look thorough enough...
TWO.... someone had found my wallet but did not contact me about it.... AHHHHHH!!!!!!

now.. no choice but to wait and hope that I will be reunited with my wallet and all its contents...
but then again... what if that don't happen... G@D D4MN 1T!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Happy Mother's Day, Mothers around the world! And MINE too!

Well.. it's been a while... and things has been.... dull? well... after that day it did start off that way...

Wednesday, May 4, 2005
nothing much happened that day...
supposedly, the Omachi fundraiser event was to happen again, but it was postponed cause Aunty Annie could not provide us with the omachi & the chocolate puddings to be sold...
so... really.. nothing much happened today...
even headed home early today....

Thursday, May 5, 2005
Nothing much happened today too.... other than the CV Band practise that was planned last minute the night before...
got to gather a handful of people who were interested ith the band.....
and in the end of the one hour meeting, Azie, the person in charge of the CV Band, has gotten to get two bands together from amongst those that were there...
anyway... besides that, today was also the day that I got to improve the look of the CV Notices... sigh... Abel has been bugging me about that for so long and much.. sigh...

Friday, May 6, 2005
came to school with my brother in the morning...
there was supposed to be a meeting between some of the Student Council members with some of the people of the Curtin Bookstore... to discuss on the problems that students have been experiencing with the bookstore...
but then it was cancelled last minute cause the Pro-Vice Chancellor was not able to attend...
sigh.. what a bother.... so got to spend most of my time in the morning at the Student Council room, with Bay, Iqbal, Kimmy, Michelle, Pierre and even John Ngui, though some of them for only a while...
Nothing much happened today either....
I had to stay back on campus cause later at 2pm is my shift to look after the Student Council room....
I returned home with my brother over an hour and a half later....

Ah yes! from here on things did start to be less dull...
that evening, there was this Movie Screening premiere, which will be showing all the movies done by the Media students over the years since 2002 (I heard) until the present...
sadly for me.. I had to cancel going to that cause that night, there was a dinner function at Mega Hotel, celebrating Mother's Day....
my mother told me to join her there... and I thought it'd look terrible for me to cancel that over some movies that included my friends in them... hahaha...
Sigh.. in life.. you've just gotta make some sacrifices.... T_T
haha.. kidding, it's all good....

though... my mother had to go very early to the venue...
the function is scheduled to begin at 6.30pm, but we were there at 5pm.... sigh....
I just sat there at our table... bored the moment I arrived...
smsed with Abel to keep me company... hehe....
sigh, I can still remember what he told me....

Me: Sigh.. still have half an hour more before the function starts, and then another half to an hour more before the food comes... T_T
Abel: Enjoy..
Me: Thanks, I am so gonna enjoy my next hour... Well, at least the peanuts finally came, hehe...

haha... the diner was all right... the food's nice... but the function was really boring for me... sheesh....
entertained myself more with the Splinter Cell game in my cousin, Janet's mobile phone... haha...
after that function... got to play Kingdom Hearts at my other cousin's house, Jonathan...
but still can't get to see the ending movie scenes of the game.. SHEESH!!!
need to find another CD.... sheesh....

Daytime, nothing much happened...
the Grooming/Public Speaking workshop that was planned to happen that morning was postponed due to 'unforeseen problems'...
so.. just spent most of my time online... looking for references for a few essays (Research & Writing Skills 062 assignments)..
however, at night, Jimmy had invited most of the EXCO & CVA members over to his house for dinner and some plain fun gathering...
those that came included Abel, Johnna, Snow Jae, VJ, KC, Chu Chu, Diana, Emy, Angeline, Kimmy, Eddy, Havinesh, his gf (Sorry, don't know name), Roger & Iqbal....
we had quite some fun, karaoke, dancing... hahha... and there was alcohol.. sigh.. haha...
I only drank a sip of beer.... didn't enjoy the taste at all... haha...
I can definitely remember nearly everyone was tipsy that night... *quivers* haha!

Headed back home at near midnight.... sigh... feels good to have such happening after some time of dullness... hehe!
ah yes.... midnight.. before I slept, I recalled to wish my mother 'Happy Mother's Day'... hehe...

Sunday, May 8, 2005
Today... nothign really happened....
got to spend time to catch up with my Detective Conan comicbook series.... sigh.. been a VERY LONG time since I read the comic....
also got to go out for dinner at the chinese restaurant in Mega hotel....
tomorrow.... school days again... hehe... honestly can't wait!

- There will forever be two sides to a coin. I personally enjoy standing on the fence, though it can be quite a bother or even stressful sometimes.... really.

Even more has happened...

Now.. let's see... what has been happening in the last week.... since last Tuesday..
Ah yeah.... now I remember..

Came to campus as usual... helped out with the campaign that the CV!A were running...
one hour class til noon... and then got prepared to join Abel and some others to go to a high school... which was my old secondary school! SMK Chung Hua Miri!
I just had GOT to go! hahaa! I wanted to see how it's been...
Abel was going there to do a motivation talk to the students (the ones that are not keen to studying) to motivate them to study and to work to be successful in their lives...
Got a ride there by the Curtin bus.... the others who joined included Iqbal, Oscar, Daryll, KC, Izzah, VJ & Kimmy...
as we headed to the school, Abel briefed us a little of what's gonna happen...
supposedly, there were going to be 120 students, I think.... to be there for the talk....

initially, I had thought that the talk was gonna happen at the big (air-conditioned) hall of the school... I was SO looking forward to it...
but then... turned out the talk was gonna be at a crampy conference room... sheesh...
Nonetheless, Abel got the job done... we had our share of fun.. and soon enough, the talk was over... and the students can go off to do their own things...
however, not really for us, as the Curtin bus is not there yet to send us back...
so had to stick around longer.... got to watch the brass band practising on the basketball courts... and also had a little something to eat at the cafeteria....
We finally went off back to campus at 5pm when the bus finally arrived...
to be honest, I was supposed to have a Math class at 4pm... and I had thought I'd be half an hour late... but then turned out at that moment, I wasn't going to make it to the class at all...
sigh.. oh well... I can catch up with Math.. no problem...
Back on campus, headed for the CV! Cheerleading and Dance practise that was starting from 5.30pm (the time we just arrived)...
the two separate practises were mainly conducted by Joanna and Gretchel... one hour each... from 5.30-7.30pm....
had a little problem with the venue.. but went through with the practises, nonetheless...

after that... what happened.... hmm...
I believe I had a late night working with Iqbal... can't be sure.... too long ago and too much has happened...

Next day is Wednesday... man... I really can barely remember...
sigh... I really can't remember my days anymore.... way too much ups and downs that has happened...
sigh... there goes my diary.... and some sweet and also bitter memories...
brief summary... daytime spent at Curtin with activities and work to do...
nights came back home late.. some nights cause of work, some cause went out with my CV family...
had stresses putting a hard strain on me, physically, mentally and even emotionally...

I can remember the lastest few days though... starting from Saturday... before that, my memory is like a blur...
Saturday... morning...
Campus Tour Coordinators Training workshop, organised by CV! and conducted by some of our ex-SOAR Advisors.. namely Snow Jae, Serena, Kimmy, Iqbal, Kian, Bay & Izzah...
sigh... morning started off badly... with most of us being quite upset about different things...
but at the end of the workshop, we all got to calm down more....
most of the CV! Apprentices were there for the workshop... and nearly all of them got to have a talk with Abel.. and then later, most of the EXCO members....
after noon, all of us remaining there decided to go off for lunch somewhere... took us a while to decide where, but finally, Abel suggested a nice place...
we all got there and had our lunches... in the comfy seats, in the air-conditioned room, with the nice and clean atmosphere inside the restaurant and even the nice songs playing on the radio...
I don't know what the place is called... Shell something something...
we had hours of fun there.... eating, talking, laughing, discussing, etc... after our meals, we got out of the restaurant and gathered at the lounge area.. and just enjoyed ourselves as some of us took turns playing the guitar while everyone else sang the songs... haha...

evening time, most of us had already gone off.... but not for me, Abel, Johnna, Diana, Emy, Angeline, Janice & Jimmy...
if I'm not mistaken, the girls were the ones that suggested the idea of going window shopping at Boulevard... then invited Abel to join...
cause of that and the fact that I had no other plans, I joined along...
We had fun... I personally gotten to know a bit more about fashion.. a tiny bit... we spent a fun time together, walking around window shopping around Boulevard...
after that, headed off to Parkson to watch movie... The Pacifier... starring Vin Diesel...
first we had our dinner at McDonald... contacted people to join us....
waited for the time... the movie was at 9.15pm....
heheh... got to get Roger to join us.. for once he's joining this gang to watch a movie.. hehe...
We enjoyed ourselves that night.. the movie was great....

After that, Roger headed back home... while the rest of us spent some more time at Al Fresco...
nearly all of them wanted to go clubbing... I wasn't too thrilled with the thought... not that I dislike clubbing or anything... just the status of my current state and situation...
However, cause of the crowd, we never got into Cheerie Berries.... spent the time outside...
eventually, got to go home... though at 2 in the morning.. sigh... haha...

Next day... Sunday.... I had actually planned to just sleep and sleep and sleep... all the way til I woke up on my own and not fall back to sleep again...
but.. hahah... that plan didn't happen... cause by 10am, suddenly my phone rang....
turned out to be Diana... answered... turned out she and Angeline were coming to Sin Yakin, the big coffee shop that was near where I lived... to eat breakfast...
hehe... I can still recall the question she asked me.... 'You are awake already, right?'
haha.. I just laughed right there.... then told her my answer honestly...
immediately she didn't know what to say already.... but I agreed to join them nonetheless....
told her I'll meet with them half an hour later...
Got off bed.... got to shower... and after that went off to meet with them.. I could easily walk over to Sin Yakin...

After having breakfast with them... then we went to Johnna's apartment...
and let me tell you, his apartment is excellent.... knew it the moment I got a look at the place...
such a calm and comfortable atmosphere.. nice modern art on the walls.. great electronical stuffs around the house (home theater system, computer, etc).... a fridge filled with good stuffs... and lots of snacks to spare... hahah!
spent quite a while there.... and then we went off....
went to Parkson and we got to play two rounds of bowling...
the game started off quite well for me... and for the first time, I was on a row with hittings strikes and spares and I even got a double strike fair and square.. hahah!
also, Johnna, who was excellent in bowling as I had once blogged about some blogs back... was having difficulties with his bowling, and wasn't performing as well at the time..
but then, going into the second game, things turned as my luck seemed to fade off and Johnna's performance rose immensely as he got his momentum going right...
after that, we headed off to the Miri Crocodile Farm... along the way, fetching Iqbal to join us..
it's been a while since my last visit to this farm... but nothing at all has changed...
sorry to say lah, this farm is owned by the father of a good friend of mine.. but I don't like the place...
cages too small and not well-suited for the animals... nothing much ever happens there... I don't see much reason why the place could be a tourist attraction...
it really needs to improve its facilities, besides adding more small cages for crocodiles...
anyway... only half an hour and we already covered the whole farm... I never realised how small the place actually was....

after that, sent Angeline home... and then we went to Imperial, more window shopping...
that evening, Abel smsed, mentioning about doing his work at Desserts and is inviting company...
Diana, Johnna, Iqbal & I had a little trouble planning out our progress til that...
I was sent home to eat dinner... waited for over an hour before Iqbal came back to pick me up...
then at Desserts... Abel, Iqbal, Johnna, Serena, Diana, Kimmy, Michelle, KC, VJ, Snow Jae & I were there...
after our time there, we decided to proceed the night at Johnna's apartment... which we did... and boy did everyone else enjoyed themselves there..
and as the night proceeded, we turned into a great night out... at midnight, we were celebrated Johnna's birthday...
but then... a few hours later, something just had to trigger and ruin the whole mood of the night... which even led Abel to immediately left for home...
thankfully, things got better in the end before we all headed on home..
guess what though.. it was 5am when I got home... that's real bad.. sigh...
and to think I have to be up at 7.30 to prepare myself to go to school in the morning...

Without bothering to shower, I just slept in the sitting room...
woke up more than two hours later and then did the usual before going to school...
this day, nothing much happened... just more work that I found out that I had to be done with on the day before the next day...
evening time, got to spend time with Johnna, Emy, Angeline & Diana to eat kueh chap/baku teh at DPS supermarket....
then Iqbal joined and we headed to Curtin Village while the girls went on to freshen themselves up before we will head off to Leez's Cafe...
sigh.. while waiting at Diana's place.. got to watch a Iban film... and boy was it terrible...
repetitive, boring, not logical, lousy acting, bad camera work..... big word..... pointless...
sigh....

anyway, got to join for dinner with Abel at Lou Bin Tang...
before we went to Leez's Cafe... there, we got to celebrate Johnna's birthday again... this time, with cake and candles..
as we continued to spend time, Abel had to go off... but we went on with the night there... with lots of good laughs and stuffs...
though the night didn't end so well for me...
truthfully, I was terribly upset while everyone else was laughing... I laughed cause I tried to enjoy the best that I could and not selfishly ruin the mood...
sigh.. whatever lah...
got home by 10.30pm... had planned to shower and then do some work til late night... but then my plan was once again derailed when my eldest sister (currently still at Kuala Lumpur) wanted to talk to me on the phone...
had a VERY VERY long chat with her... all family related matters.... (annoying those mosquitoes that kept bothering me as I spoke on the phone... my feet were so itchy after that...)
after that talk, I really felt relieved... cause now there's someone in the family who has some ideas of what I've been doing...
(though after today, I saw that that didn't change much of anything around the house)

despite it already being late, I decided to just stick with the plan and work a bit...
got to go to sleep at 12.30am...

Woke up this morning just before 8am... had to rush myself... showered, ate a light breakfast and then went to campus with my brother... for once, I was the one driving... but then, sheesh...
I thought I'd be able to get away with this time without being moody... but no!!
as I was driving, my eldest sister called and talked to my brother, regarding my comment on his bad-temperedness...
and damn that the reasons for his actions were so darn biased.... terribly annoying lah that boy...
then not only that, he keeps shouting orders for me while I drive...
YO, F*&%^$@! I KNOW WHAT TO DO WHILE DRIVING!!!!
he kept on with the orders all the way til I finally parked the car... and even then he wanted to comment on my action, where I just threw the car keys at the back seat to where his books were... saying that he would've just shut the door if he had not seen me do that...
hey.... I would easily know if you have taken the keys or not before shutting and lockin the car... f*&%^#$....

9am I needed to prepare the CV! Booth for the OMACHI fundraising event...
but damned, I was so moody and I was so bad-tempered while doing my work... I was even rude to Bay a bit, who I respect so so much for how he works and treats everyone with him... I was even mean to Roger on one bit on (now I think about it) small matters, which I could've just reminded him nicely...
I was so pissed (I dare say) about lots of thing that few hours that morning... from my brother, to some of my working mates, and even myself...
sigh.............................

anyway.. thankfully, things brightened up for me as the day progressed and my bad-temperedness decremented and I was back to being cheery ol' me... if I can call myself cheery...
the OMACHI event went excellent... our big accomplishment is that the event was supposed to go on til 4pm, but our desserts on sell were sold out even before 2pm!!
Initial plan was that the OMACHI event happens again tomorrow... at the same time and place... but then Aunty Annie, who contributed the desserts for this event, said she is unable to provide the desserts for tomorrow... so the event may be postponed to next week.. to be confirmed...

anyway... classes, then headed home...
sigh.. once got home... got lectured by my mother... damn annoying.... I admit... plus again with my brother's annoying (but pointless and worthless) attempts to shoot me down...
after that, I went for shower... and as I showered... I had gotten to think...
all this time, I've always thought I had two sides in my current life... work life (CV!, Student Council, studies) and personal life (friends, family, etc)...
but then I've gotten to realise that there was more to my personal life... that it had actually split into two... which led me to come to a conclusion of the 'Work' me, the 'Usual' me and the 'Family' me...
the 'Work' me would be when I work in CV!, Student Council or in my studies, trying to be professional as I work and all that...
the 'Usual' me would be the current me that many see when outside the house (and not in the company of my brother)...
the 'Family' me would be the me when I am back home with my family or me whenever I interact with my family members... which includes my dear respect to my mother and elder sisters...

For my current family matter situation, the 'Usual' me is feeling very much annoyed by it and is losing lots of patience... while 'Family' me understands why this is happenning and is trying best to bring things right again...
my 'Work' me has nothing to say on it though as I find it no point to...
despite the different sides and point of view from each of these 'me's.... one thing I was really 100% certain that the three agree on...
all three me's dislike my brother...
the 'Work' me would never agree and want or even imagine working with him..
the 'Usual' me find him a terrible nuisance and annoyance to be with...
even the 'Family' me find no point to respect him (when I am able to respect my mother so much despite her annoyance)...
which would conclude that I truly and fully despise my brother..
hmph!!

sigh.. finally.. got them out... sheesh....
now.. time to sleep for tomorrow... eyes burning tired..
