			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>A belated Merry Christmas and Happy new year to all.<br />
I apologize that most of my old posts from previous blogs are uncategorised as I&#8217;m too lazy to categorise them one by one.</p>
<p>And yes! I finally got a new phone after nearly half a year depending on old and partially &#8216;cacated&#8217; mobile phone!<br />
It&#8217;s a Nokia 7210 (supernova series) Seems like I&#8217;ve abandoned Sony Erricson this time.</p>
<p><a href="http://teddyen.files.wordpress.com/2009/01/020109-041.jpg"><img class="aligncenter size-full wp-image-254" title="N7210" src="http://teddyen.files.wordpress.com/2009/01/020109-041.jpg?w=655&#038;h=491" alt="N7210" width="655" height="491" /></a></p>
<p><span style="text-decoration:underline;">My review</span><br />
Pros:<br />
-2GB memory<br />
-2megapixel Camera<br />
-mp3 media player works fine, sound is good, works well for me as an mp3 player<br />
-flat, sleek, design not bad<br />
-has all the basic features of a new generation phone for a price of RM470<br />
-love the active standby mode ( u can put notes/shortcutbar and other stuff on the wallpaper) and editable shortcut keys<br />
-is original</p>
<p>Cons:<br />
-no flash light (flashlight on camphone is really useful as a temporary torch)<br />
-flat keypads (it&#8217;s good in a way as it&#8217;s less likely to hv dirt stuck in between keys but it&#8217;s not really comfortable to press)<br />
-looks fragile (to me)<br />
-didn&#8217;t come with a USB cable when the phone has a USB slot<br />
-max 2gb memory, it won&#8217;t be able to read any larger memory card<br />
-can&#8217;t connect to wifi to online (yes, i thought that was a pretty good feature of shu&#8217;s phone, but nah, can&#8217;t really compare with this phone, and it&#8217;s good enough for me already.)</p>
<p>Right, updates on trip to Jeram Besu and Penang coming up later.</p>

<p>It&#8217;s almost like a petting zoo and riding elephants area, this two places we went too. They just had to attract visitors to fund the place and provide a sanctuary for the elephants. I can&#8217;t say what they did was right but i can&#8217;t say it was entirely wrong either. Feel happier knowing that they do get released later on, but for how long do they have to suffer like this just to have a safe home and food?</p>
<p>I&#8217;m a bit ashamed to say I rode one too (cause they do hit them albeit not violently, lucky the elephants have thick skin) but I felt it&#8217;s a rare experience and I should take the chance to. The have really rough hairs and they&#8217;re really cute. lol ^^</p>
<p><img src="http://photos-g.ak.fbcdn.net/photos-ak-snc1/v1624/144/53/649478421/n649478421_1177398_4890.jpg" alt="" /><br />
think of the forests, it is their home, take an effort not to destroy them as well, recycle your paper, cardboards, pizza takeaway box, papercups after washing them.</p>
<p>Cave exploring wasn&#8217;t as great as Gua Tempurung&#8217;s one but the part where we get to climb up real high and have to slowly ascend down one was exciting indeed.</p>
<p>That&#8217;s about it. For more pictures check out my facebook.<br />
Next post on -&gt; penang trip</p>
<p>edit: Credits to ShuNing for ehr wide knowledge on the animals name.<br />

next post:</p>
<p>Yes, Penang is not only a city of food and shopping. It has it&#8217;s own natural wonders and beauty. So behold these beautiful sights&#8230;</p>
<p>Starting of with Penang Hill<br />
We sat the cable train up.<br />
<img src="http://photos-b.ak.fbcdn.net/photos-ak-snc1/v1924/144/53/649478421/n649478421_1265505_5213.jpg" alt="" /><br />
It&#8217;s a really steep rail from top to bottom.</p>
<p><img src="http://photos-h.ak.fbcdn.net/photos-ak-snc1/v1924/144/53/649478421/n649478421_1266095_7442.jpg" alt="" /><br />
spot the tunnel behind?</p>
<p>Upon reaching up there, beautiful views of Penang greeted us. I&#8217;m sorry to say my camera couldn&#8217;t capture the view and the atmosphere nicely but u can easily spot the penang bridge from there.<br />
<img src="http://photos-b.ak.fbcdn.net/photos-ak-snc1/v1924/144/53/649478421/n649478421_1266097_8269.jpg" alt="" /><br />
Telescopes are provided and as I peer into them I can see vehicle crawling along the road but I have no idea where I&#8217;m looking at. I spent most of the time enjoying thre breeze and the view. You can even see patches of green areas that are the padi fields in either Seberang Perai or Kedah.</p>
<p>So we had lunch in a restaurant that has a few hanging vipers sleeping among the crawling vines and leaves. Then while the rest sat the train back, we climb down the jeep road from Penang Hill. Note that I say &#8216;climb&#8217; because going downhill is not as easy as you think. It&#8217;s really really steep at most parts and I ended up going downhill backwards. They say it&#8217;s better as to not hurt yr knee and lend weight to your muscles instead. So I had an aching calf muscle the next day.</p>
<p><img src="http://photos-e.ak.fbcdn.net/photos-ak-snc1/v1924/144/53/649478421/n649478421_1266100_9395.jpg" alt="" /><br />
Some grand house on the way down<br />
<img src="http://photos-f.ak.fbcdn.net/photos-ak-snc1/v1924/144/53/649478421/n649478421_1265341_9860.jpg" alt="" /><br />
i guess this is how they lie down<br />
<img src="http://photos-g.ak.fbcdn.net/photos-ak-snc1/v1924/144/53/649478421/n649478421_1265342_175.jpg" alt="" /><br />
and they were loitering the streets<br />
<img src="http://photos-h.ak.fbcdn.net/photos-ak-snc1/v1924/144/53/649478421/n649478421_1265343_485.jpg" alt="" /><br />
of course, they picks ticks for their family members<br />
<img src="http://photos-a.ak.fbcdn.net/photos-ak-snc1/v1924/144/53/649478421/n649478421_1265344_842.jpg" alt="" /><br />
a strange sight of a falling tree due to landslide</p>
<p>The next day, we set of for a boat trip to beaches that can&#8217;t be access by land unless u plan to jungle trek through the forest trails (which I plan to next time).<br />
<img src="http://photos-b.ak.fbcdn.net/photos-ak-snc1/v1924/144/53/649478421/n649478421_1265345_1233.jpg" alt="" /><br />
A beautiful view from Pantai Kerachut<br />

Relaxing by the beach<br />
<img src="http://photos-e.ak.fbcdn.net/photos-ak-snc1/v1924/144/53/649478421/n649478421_1265348_2384.jpg" alt="" /><br />
Stream flowing into the open sea<br />
<img src="http://photos-f.ak.fbcdn.net/photos-ak-snc1/v1924/144/53/649478421/n649478421_1265349_2727.jpg" alt="" /><br />
The bridge that leads to the trail<br />
<img src="http://photos-g.ak.fbcdn.net/photos-ak-snc1/v1924/144/53/649478421/n649478421_1265350_3056.jpg" alt="" /><br />
This is call a meromictic lake, the only one in Malaysia. It&#8217;s a mud area during the dry season. But in April/May or Oct/Nov which is the monsoon season, It&#8217;ll be filled up with water that is separated into two different layers. One is sea water and the other is fresh water that never mixes. Hence the name meromictic.<br />

Me and my baby cousin Rui Han.</p>
<p>Boat ride was wonderful as usual. I just love speed boat rides!<br />
And we went to visit the mangrove area and the fishing village.<br />
<img src="http://photos-e.ak.fbcdn.net/photos-ak-snc1/v1924/144/53/649478421/n649478421_1265356_5268.jpg" alt="" /><br />

<p>the fishing village<br />
<img src="http://photos-h.ak.fbcdn.net/photos-ak-snc1/v1924/144/53/649478421/n649478421_1265359_6361.jpg" alt="" /><br />

the way into the mangrive swamp<br />
<img src="http://photos-c.ak.fbcdn.net/photos-ak-snc1/v1924/144/53/649478421/n649478421_1265362_7587.jpg" alt="" /><br />

and staring off into that endless ocean, it scares me a bit at times. Imagine getting lost in the middles of an ocean where you don&#8217;t see land anywhere. It makes me feel small, the awesome and dangerous ocean.</p>
<p>Then we went to monkey beach. In which my dad and I climb steps up to the lighthouse despite our (or rather my) aching limbs. It was worth the effort for I felt pretty good upon achieving to reach our destination. Unfortunately we didn&#8217;t get to go in.<br />
still, here&#8217;s a pic of the light house.<br />

Before we started climbing, near the entrance.</p>
<p>We had our tea/lunch before we climbed.<br />

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>Howdy&#8230;</p>
<p>Shu has entered the building&#8230;haha&#8230;</p>
<p>Hmmm, firstly, I wanna know&#8230;is there a way this blog can auto import from my blogger account? It would be so so much more convenient than updating both blogs at one time&#8230;</p>
<p>Ok, next.</p>
<p>Hi guys! Shu here. Musically inclined animal lover, future veterinarian&#8230;sometimes emo, and sometimes cheerfully hyper&#8230;well, you guys already know practically everything about me, so I don&#8217;t think I have to introduce myself.</p>
<p>Well guys, I&#8217;m a diehard blogger who updates often but hey, don&#8217;t you guys let this blog go to waste! Haha&#8230;this is one of the ways to ensure that we all keep in touch, even as we all go our separate ways. I just watched High School Musical 3 recently, and was pretty touched when I saw how those guys vowed to remain together despite graduating and moving on with their lives. Well, I know its a fantasy-like thing, and often, Friends Forever means nothing&#8230;but hey, I&#8217;m certain that with the efforts of both parties, certain bonds can indeed transcend time. And I hope ours will too.</p>
<p>Ok, I need to work on our profile page, teach my cousin, feed my foster puppy, brush up on guitar, and start reading a novel by tonight (its already 11.20 pm), so I&#8217;ll update here some other time!</p>
<p>Ja ne&#8230;</p>
<p>Kim, faster join up&#8230;and lets get started on planning our get-together&#8230;haha&#8230;</p>
<p>SKYX rocks! ^^ (I should come up with a proper motto&#8230;and miss artist yangyang, a logo would be nice&#8230;lolx, kidding&#8230;)</p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>I&#8217;m still adjusting to the revelation that I no longer need to prop a book right in front of my laptop. But while the freedom from studying is exhilarating at times, the boredom of holidays is already beginning to set in&#8230;you know, not having to study sure is relaxing, but I&#8217;m missing the company I enjoyed in Akasia&#8230;being stuck at home means I only have my laptop to talk to.</p>
<p>To fill in the hours of boredom, and for the sake of having something I can play once I&#8217;m in need of music, I have just gotten myself a guitar, and am now teaching myself to play. Its only been a day, but I&#8217;m having fun. Playing an instrument really opens up a whole new world to you; I found that out after picking up violin and piano. You can actually play anything you like; as long as you can hear out the melody and fit in the chords&#8230;<br /><img style="display:block;width:400px;cursor:hand;height:300px;text-align:center;margin:0 auto 10px;" alt="" src="http://1.bp.blogspot.com/_EHu6GTY3HxI/SSGs4CC16xI/AAAAAAAADnE/8rgWKgjs97o/s400/IMG_4618.JPG" border="0" /><br />Anyway, here&#8217;s the long-overdue post on my dear housemate, Ing Ing&#8217;s birthday on 11th November.</p>
<p>But first, a tribute to my 1st ever canine family member, Rozie, who came into my life when I was an 8 year old. Happy Birthday, girl&#8230;and thanks&#8230;you made a world of difference in the life of a lonely kid, and set her on the course of life she is now headed to.</p>
<p>And also, let me extend a warm welcome to the newest addition to the family. Meet my new foster puppy, Chewy, who will be the baby of the house until he&#8217;s old enough to be vaccinated and put up for adoption.<br /><img style="display:block;width:400px;cursor:hand;height:300px;text-align:center;margin:0 auto 10px;" alt="" src="http://2.bp.blogspot.com/_EHu6GTY3HxI/SSBDWWCyOQI/AAAAAAAADkc/5ygyDYZC2e8/s400/IMG_4586.JPG" border="0" /><br />When I first picked him up in the shelter, he was the smallest(he&#8217;s only about 6 weeks), and most terrified puppy in the area. Why, he shied away the moment I opened the cage, and when I tried to touch him, he bared his teeth and snapped nervously.</p>
<p>But when I brought him home, oh man, I was shown an entirely different side of this little fellow. He&#8217;s a total RASCAL!!! When Toffee (bless her, wherever she is now) first came, it took her quite a while settle down and finally turn into a little rascal. Now little Chewy, while he&#8217;s younger than Toffee on her 1st night, he&#8217;s several times more mischievous! He chews EVERYTHING he can get his little jaws on, and he even knows how to scold and nag if he&#8217;s annoyed!<br /><img style="display:block;width:400px;cursor:hand;height:300px;text-align:center;margin:0 auto 10px;" alt="" src="http://1.bp.blogspot.com/_EHu6GTY3HxI/SSBDXGJStPI/AAAAAAAADkk/0BsfIEOfYlU/s400/IMG_4594.JPG" border="0" /><br />Cute little fellow&#8230;he&#8217;s a baby in many ways&#8230;He doesn&#8217;t want to be left alone, and so, the minute I put him into the cage, he starts crying and squealing. At times though, if he&#8217;s really tired, you&#8217;ll here him screech for one moment and suddenly, he&#8217;s fast asleep in the next. But oh, when he wakes up, there begins all the crying again&#8230;and mind you, he can squeal for AGES&#8230;<br /><img style="display:block;width:300px;cursor:hand;height:400px;text-align:center;margin:0 auto 10px;" alt="" src="http://3.bp.blogspot.com/_EHu6GTY3HxI/SSBDVNeweLI/AAAAAAAADkM/IRSZt8PCO3c/s400/IMG_4574.JPG" border="0" /><br />And when I let him out, he goes into that joyful frenzy; prancing about, trying to chew on my fingers and lick my face. He&#8217;s more comfortable with someone around, and its pretty heartening when he clambers over to you just for a snooze&#8230;and that&#8217;s when he looks super angelic&#8230;</p>

<p>Ok, now back to Ing Ing&#8217;s birthday.</p>
<p>I was pretty intent on giving Ing Ing a real &#8220;surprise&#8221; on her birthday (After all the fun I had in mine, she should have a &#8220;taste&#8221; of some pranking as well&#8230;muahaha&#8230;)</p>
<p>Hence, together with my partners-in-crime, Connie and Aishah, and fellow Geass-ed Four members, Laura and Lee Kuan, we began the preparations right after our SACE Biology paper.</p>
<p>Getting the cake and all was easy, but we had some problems when we found out the shop had run out of Snow Spray. Well, no choice but to switch to Plan B&#8230;or rather, INVENT a Plan B&#8230;</p>
<p>No Snow Spray? No problem! Make your own material then!</p>
<p>Originally, I had opted to just go for detergent &amp; water, just like I did for Lee Ling&#8217;s birthday a few months back. But with Connie around&#8230;hmmm&#8230;lets just say things got a lot more interesting&#8230;</p>
<p>Here were the ingredients of Ing Ing&#8217;s birthday concotion: water, detergent, Johnson&#8217;s baby bath, 100 plus lime flavour, Quaker Oats Vanilla flavour, McD pepper, Boh tea, Creamer, and Maggi Mee Curry Powder&#8230;(last 3 were Connie&#8217;s)</p>
<p><img style="display:block;width:300px;cursor:hand;height:400px;text-align:center;margin:0 auto 10px;" alt="" src="http://4.bp.blogspot.com/_EHu6GTY3HxI/SSBLrmcf2HI/AAAAAAAADk0/6ed8PSfo980/s400/Photo0111.jpg" border="0" /><br /><a href="http://3.bp.blogspot.com/_EHu6GTY3HxI/SSBLsaV_c7I/AAAAAAAADlE/LEeofjv_-pQ/s1600-h/Photo0120.jpg"><img style="display:block;width:400px;cursor:hand;height:300px;text-align:center;margin:0 auto 10px;" alt="" src="http://3.bp.blogspot.com/_EHu6GTY3HxI/SSBLsaV_c7I/AAAAAAAADlE/LEeofjv_-pQ/s400/Photo0120.jpg" border="0" /></a><br /><img style="display:block;width:400px;cursor:hand;height:300px;text-align:center;margin:0 auto 10px;" alt="" src="http://3.bp.blogspot.com/_EHu6GTY3HxI/SSBLskEOAUI/AAAAAAAADlM/v0uovWnQARo/s400/Photo0122.jpg" border="0" /></p>
<p>As with EVERY SINGLE birthday celebration here, my biggest problem was getting a lighter. AGAIN. Finally, the only thing I could do was get Chi Hau to send one over from Cemara at about 11.45&#8230;</p>
<p>Everyone met in my laman, most of them looking pretty sleepy. After all, it was already past Laura, Lee Kuan, and Jeng&#8217;s bedtime.</p>
<p>As Ing Ing had retired off to bed early, Connie held the door open and at the count of 3, we all burst inside and started singing happy birthday. Her reaction was hilarious&#8230;she literally jumped off the bed in shock as we all sang Happy Birthday&#8230;</p>
<p>1st prank of the day, relighting candles. It seemed like such a waste not to use them, so I placed 2 on the cake for good measure, and had a really good laugh as the birthday girl exasperatedly kept trying to blow them out&#8230; <img style="display:block;width:400px;cursor:hand;height:300px;text-align:center;margin:0 auto 10px;" alt="" src="http://1.bp.blogspot.com/_EHu6GTY3HxI/SSGkDZYsEmI/AAAAAAAADlc/eqfDuSLmXDU/s400/IMG_4262.JPG" border="0" /><br /><img style="display:block;width:400px;cursor:hand;height:300px;text-align:center;margin:0 auto 10px;" alt="" src="http://3.bp.blogspot.com/_EHu6GTY3HxI/SSGkDgf1pfI/AAAAAAAADlk/YDs6EzpnvAo/s400/IMG_4268.JPG" border="0" /><br />Mummy Jeng cut the cake (as usual), and while Ing Ing turned to hers, muahaha&#8230;us 3 pranksters took the piece of cake we had bought specifically for this reason, and shove it right into her face.</p>
<p>Well, the last time, Connie and Akee took slices from my Birthday cake and coated my face with them. So while Ing Ing was preventing that from happening by keeping an eye on every slice, she didn&#8217;t notice that we had bought a smaller one specially for this reason&#8230;</p>
<p><a href="http://1.bp.blogspot.com/_EHu6GTY3HxI/SSGkEbHUqmI/AAAAAAAADl8/AZA5eGOtze0/s1600-h/IMG_4283.JPG"><img style="display:block;width:400px;cursor:hand;height:300px;text-align:center;margin:0 auto 10px;" alt="" src="http://1.bp.blogspot.com/_EHu6GTY3HxI/SSGkEbHUqmI/AAAAAAAADl8/AZA5eGOtze0/s400/IMG_4283.JPG" border="0" /></a> <img style="display:block;width:400px;cursor:hand;height:300px;text-align:center;margin:0 auto 10px;" alt="" src="http://2.bp.blogspot.com/_EHu6GTY3HxI/SSGqa5zjN2I/AAAAAAAADmk/5n-zhjcehXg/s400/IMG_4286.JPG" border="0" /><img style="display:block;width:400px;cursor:hand;height:300px;text-align:center;margin:0 auto 10px;" alt="" src="http://1.bp.blogspot.com/_EHu6GTY3HxI/SSGqazxe6zI/AAAAAAAADmc/xakMSKzE9UQ/s400/IMG_4291.JPG" border="0" /></p>
<p>Trust me, this little prank is part of a bigger one&#8230;</p>
<p>We all insisted that our Birthday girl should wash up in the toilet. &#8220;<em>You&#8217;re so dirty la&#8230;faster go toilet and clean up&#8230;</em>&#8220;. In fact, we were so adamant about it that she got pretty suspicious, and started wondering if we had anything set up in the toilet (We Didn&#8217;t, I swear&#8230;) In fact, as Lolo did her part in trying to convince her to get into the toilet, Ing Ing turned on her and kept trying to figure out what was up from her expression&#8230;(Lolo&#8217;s usually much more &#8220;guai&#8221; compared to us&#8230;so you can understand why Ing Ing targeted her&#8230;hehe&#8230;)</p>
<p>It took quite a while, but finally she relented, and Connie practically YELLED for me to grab the bottles of her birthday concotion. And *splash*, operation cover-mei ing-with-unknown-substance commences&#8230; <img style="display:block;width:300px;cursor:hand;height:400px;text-align:center;margin:0 auto 10px;" alt="" src="http://1.bp.blogspot.com/_EHu6GTY3HxI/SSGs3Zf4EQI/AAAAAAAADms/vkvb7Viv3s4/s400/IMG_4301.JPG" border="0" /><img style="display:block;width:400px;cursor:hand;height:300px;text-align:center;margin:0 auto 10px;" alt="" src="http://3.bp.blogspot.com/_EHu6GTY3HxI/SSGqaNFvAjI/AAAAAAAADmM/hmxuGjSDZ-w/s400/IMG_4304.JPG" border="0" /><br /><img style="display:block;width:300px;cursor:hand;height:400px;text-align:center;margin:0 auto 10px;" alt="" src="http://3.bp.blogspot.com/_EHu6GTY3HxI/SSGs3pMhZVI/AAAAAAAADm0/HrinxaFkcyI/s400/IMG_4307.JPG" border="0" /><br />I&#8217;m really glad it was an overall success, and we made the Birthday Girl pretty happy. After all, birthdays are only special because what your friends do to make it special for you&#8230;and its the final birthday we can celebrate together before we leave this place, so why not make it as special as possible?<br /><img style="display:block;width:300px;cursor:hand;height:400px;text-align:center;margin:0 auto 10px;" alt="" src="http://4.bp.blogspot.com/_EHu6GTY3HxI/SSGs39wZbpI/AAAAAAAADm8/yU5fZOT89lk/s400/IMG_4321.JPG" border="0" /><br />We took quite a number of pics (Family pic, Geass-ed Four pic, Alice Springs pic, Room 303 pic, and overall group pic), but not all can be posted up here as Aishah wasn&#8217;t wearing her tudung during the celebration. But whoever who was there, and wants pics&#8230;as usual, they&#8217;re all in a folder of honour in my computer&#8230;</p>

<p>Oh, and while I was away celebrating Ing Ing&#8217;s birthday, this was what my dear study room mates were up to&#8230;bullying my doggy&#8230;</p>

<p>In fact, there&#8217;re more pics on Facebook, where Lee Ling uploaded them</p>

<p><em>I still can&#8217;t believe. One and a half years of relentless studying has finally drawn to an end. Its time for us to bid goodbye to the place we&#8217;ve called home throughout this time. No more sleeping in the study room, and complaining about having nowhere to eat. And well, perhaps no more chances to see some of the wonderful people here ever again.</p>
<p>Oh no, I&#8217;m seriously becoming emo. In fact, what with all the time I&#8217;ve spent with the Banana Republic people in the Study Room, and going out with my friends these few days&#8230;I realised that I may have known these guys for only a short time; but they&#8217;ve all made a difference in my life in each of their own way&#8230;and that I&#8217;ll truly miss all of them&#8230;</p>
<p>*temporary postpones*</p>
<p>Ok, emo post comes in the next few days, along with Study Room Tales&#8230;I will update frequently during these few days&#8230;and for now, lets focus on the &#8220;recent&#8221; stuff, shall we??</p>
<p>I blogged this in Lee Kuan&#8217;s room on Thursday night.</em></p>
<p>YOSH! (Ok, why am I talking like Kuan Kuan) Exams. Are. Finally. OVER!!!!! *scream-squeal-burns books*</p>
<p>Ok, fine&#8230;recycle&#8230;be more environmental friendly&#8230;</p>
<p>As the final Chem paper was collected, I was literally jumping (in my heart) with excitement; glancing around to see who I could throw my scrunched up scribbling paper at. Its sort of like a tradition to celebrate the final paper&#8230;hahaha&#8230;(my victims were Lee Kuan, Yieng Ling and Ying Hui)</p>
<p><a href="http://3.bp.blogspot.com/_EHu6GTY3HxI/SR2_jmPJ6aI/AAAAAAAADjU/OZY5s1NqBwI/s1600-h/Photo0126.jpg"><img style="display:block;width:400px;cursor:hand;height:300px;text-align:center;margin:0 auto 10px;" alt="" src="http://3.bp.blogspot.com/_EHu6GTY3HxI/SR2_jmPJ6aI/AAAAAAAADjU/OZY5s1NqBwI/s400/Photo0126.jpg" border="0" /></a> <em>Restless&#8230;<br /></em><br />As we lunged out of the hall (pausing to gloat a little at the engineering students&#8230;sorry, couldn&#8217;t resist&#8230;), it didn&#8217;t really sink in; the fact that our 1.5 years here has finally drawn to an end.</p>
<p>I still can remember those few days when I first stepped in here&#8230;*reminisces*&#8230;but more about that in another post.</p>
<p>As usual, my camera was out and winking at every landmark I saw. Who knows, I may even make a little video out of this. Sorry guys, I know you find it strange that I keep taking photos&#8230;but that&#8217;s me&#8230;I like immortalising memories in digital form&#8230;and well, I really do have pretty good memories of this place&#8230;</p>

Admittedly, we were all amateurs, but it was a pretty good way to let out some steam&#8230;</p>

<p>After bowling, we had dinner at SECRET RECIPE. Yes, this is the very first time that all of us ordered meals without a second glance at the price. Not today&#8230;we all deserve a treat after all we&#8217;ve done.</p>

<p>I slept real late at night (or more like morning), as I watched another anime (Special A), played Feeding Frenzy, and cleared up my stuff for Joanne to collect on Friday. Hence, it was no surprise that Lee Kuan had a hell of a time getting me up this morning&#8230;.</p>
<p>There were so many AUSMAT-ians out today; we bumped into many in the KTM station, and even at the places we went. <img style="display:block;width:400px;cursor:hand;height:300px;text-align:center;margin:0 auto 10px;" alt="" src="http://1.bp.blogspot.com/_EHu6GTY3HxI/SR2zIJQNTHI/AAAAAAAADhU/8z2q103XVBE/s400/IMG_4464.JPG" border="0" /> <em>Lol&#8230;tell me I have skilll&#8230;I managed to get everyone into the picture&#8230;pretty balanced as welll&#8230;*proud*</em></p>
<p>Our plans for today? EXPLORE!!!</p>
<p>Yup, instead of choosing a shopping mall and just hanging out for the whole day, the 3 of us went on a tour of KL. I must say, its pretty embarassing for someone like me, a Selangor-born, to be rather unfamiliar with the famous area of Bintang Walk&#8230;</p>
<p>1st stop: Pavillion, for lunch. We had lunch in the very same food court I ate with Sharon about a month ago. We didn&#8217;t really walk around there, though, as Pavillion is way too extravagant of a place for students like us&#8230;</p>
<p>Next Stop: Low Yat Plaza. I bought myself a small external hard disk to store some anime that I got from Lee Kuan. Yup, gloat all you like, but I&#8217;m finally willing to try out more animes now that all exams are over. In fact, as I type this, I&#8217;m busy copying Death Note into my new hard disk&#8230;</p>
<p><img style="display:block;width:400px;cursor:hand;height:300px;text-align:center;margin:0 auto 10px;" alt="" src="http://2.bp.blogspot.com/_EHu6GTY3HxI/SR21IkwQJlI/AAAAAAAADhc/K7i2_geZ7a4/s400/IMG_4472.JPG" border="0" /></p>
<p>Frankly, we wandered around for ages before we settled on a shop. This was because we all had HORRIBLE senses of direction, and while surveying for the cheapest price, we tended to forget from which shop we came from. The most entertaining part, is when every salesman kept approaching Lee Kuan (only) and promoting stuff to her. Laura and I joked that she had a kind of rich-girl aura, and appeared to be a computer noob hunting for a gift for a geek boyfriend&#8230;lolx, imaginations running wild&#8230;</p>
<p>We got pretty thirsty after that, so we settled in Starbucks. So there we were&#8230;sitting by the glass panel and sipping cups of Java Chip Frappuchino and enjoying a light afternoon banter. I was actually unaccustomed to feeling so relaxed &#8211; its been ages since I last sat down and enjoyed with my friends without having stuff on my mind to think about. So as we sat there, telling each other we had all the time in the world, I felt hints of a sense of contentment and relaxation begin to engulf me&#8230; <img style="display:block;width:400px;cursor:hand;height:300px;text-align:center;margin:0 auto 10px;" alt="" src="http://2.bp.blogspot.com/_EHu6GTY3HxI/SR21JjJUuqI/AAAAAAAADhs/P4MXxbu6KsA/s400/IMG_4479.JPG" border="0" /></p>
<p><a href="http://2.bp.blogspot.com/_EHu6GTY3HxI/SR21I80vN4I/AAAAAAAADhk/djTU5-Z7Cfc/s1600-h/IMG_4476.JPG"><img style="display:block;width:300px;cursor:hand;height:400px;text-align:center;margin:0 auto 10px;" alt="" src="http://2.bp.blogspot.com/_EHu6GTY3HxI/SR21I80vN4I/AAAAAAAADhk/djTU5-Z7Cfc/s400/IMG_4476.JPG" border="0" /></a></p>
<p>Well, who would visit Bukit Bintang without visiting Sungai Wang Plaza? That was the next place we went; originally with the plan of shopping for earrings and and clothes (No, NOT ME!!). But somehow, we ended up in MPH, and each of us bought a number of books. Haha&#8230; now this is a real treat for me&#8230;.</p>
<p>As it was still considerably early (we planned to spend the entire day out), we boarded the KL Monorail again, and headed to Berjaya Times Square.</p>
<p>Wow&#8230;now this really brings back memories&#8230;if I&#8217;m not mistaken, the last time I came was 3 years back, during our Octaves performance. I can still recall the crazy way we were causing havoc in IMAX and going up and down the bubble lift&#8230;</p>
<p>Mostly, we just walked floor after floor; occassionally stopping by shops that piqued our interest (like some shop which sold horror &amp; trick items). I&#8217;m usually not one for shopping, but as usual, there&#8217;s a deep contentment of walking with friends and just basking in their company&#8230;</p>

<p>Strolling through Berjaya made us pretty exhausted, so we decided to take a breather in Borders. However we didn&#8217;t count on the fact that we couldn&#8217;t bring new books (which we bought from MPH) past the sensors. All the alarms rang the minute we entered, causing all of us to jump in panic. It certainly sparked memories of a certain 2 people LEGALLY smuggling books from one UiTM library to the other for the sake of SRT&#8230;(Lolo&#8230;still remember?)</p>
<p>Thank goodness the nice security guard actually helped us to demagnetise those books&#8230;</p>
<p>Finally, it was time for dinner. We had already planned on eating at the famous Jalan Alor, so on we went on the KL Monorail again&#8230;back to Bintang Walk.</p>
<p><a href="http://4.bp.blogspot.com/_EHu6GTY3HxI/SR23TvDenmI/AAAAAAAADiE/wcN2b4hcjns/s1600-h/IMG_4491.JPG"><img style="display:block;width:400px;cursor:hand;height:300px;text-align:center;margin:0 auto 10px;" alt="" src="http://4.bp.blogspot.com/_EHu6GTY3HxI/SR23TvDenmI/AAAAAAAADiE/wcN2b4hcjns/s400/IMG_4491.JPG" border="0" /></a></p>
<p>After several wrong turnings (my fault&#8230;I know I&#8217;m a local, but I&#8217;m actually not-really familiar with KL), we finally reached the food haven. We sat down to a scrumptious meal of chicken and oyster omelette, and I packed some back for my buddies in the Banana Republic.</p>
<p><a href="http://3.bp.blogspot.com/_EHu6GTY3HxI/SR26c3voEzI/AAAAAAAADiU/GDFXhxXLx4U/s1600-h/IMG_4503.JPG"><img style="display:block;width:400px;cursor:hand;height:300px;text-align:center;margin:0 auto 10px;" alt="" src="http://3.bp.blogspot.com/_EHu6GTY3HxI/SR26c3voEzI/AAAAAAAADiU/GDFXhxXLx4U/s400/IMG_4503.JPG" border="0" /></a></p>

<p>Just in case you&#8217;re confused, Banana Republic is the gang of non-chinese educated people who&#8217;re permanent residents of Study Room 1. They&#8217;re really wonderful people, and I could go on and on about the fun I&#8217;ve had with them. But then, more about that in another post.</p>

<p>As we embarked on our long, delay-filled journey back, I reflected upon how much I enjoyed the whole day. It wasn&#8217;t just the destinations; but it was being with friends you cherish that really made the whole experience a truly beautiful one. Thanks, guys&#8230;..</p>

<p>******************************</p>
<p>I slept over at Lee Kuan&#8217;s place that night, as my dear roommate, Connie, had returned to Miri and well, I didn&#8217;t really fancy sleeping alone.</p>
<p>The next morning, I was woken by an amazingly effective alarm clock (Kuan Kuan) and together, we helped Laura move her stuff down to bus stop. As we waved, and as I bade goodbye to Lee Kuan later on, I was really starting to feel emotional&#8230;in fact, I started missing everyone within an hour or two. I know I&#8217;ll still see them during Grand Dinner and all that; but deep down, I guess that what I&#8217;m really missing is the times we chatted in class, went out for Nescafe, &#8220;conjugation&#8221;, have animated discussions about Code Geass&#8230;etc etc etc&#8230;</p>

<p>Ok&#8230;snaps out of emo state again&#8230;</p>
<p>After passing all my books to my junior, I met up with Lee Ling and Sharon, and together, we headed to Pyramid. Well, while yesterday was wandering about, today we went on a movie marathon instead. Sharon and I watched Quantum of Solace and Lee Ling, her friend, and my dear housemate, classmate, Geass-ed Four member and Ah Cho, Ing Ing joined us for High School Musical 3.</p>

<p><a href="http://2.bp.blogspot.com/_EHu6GTY3HxI/SR2-P2FfiII/AAAAAAAADi8/N5DqJagR6wA/s1600-h/IMG_4523.JPG"><img style="display:block;width:400px;cursor:hand;height:300px;text-align:center;margin:0 auto 10px;" alt="" src="http://2.bp.blogspot.com/_EHu6GTY3HxI/SR2-P2FfiII/AAAAAAAADi8/N5DqJagR6wA/s400/IMG_4523.JPG" border="0" /></a></p>
<p>I was actually kinda &#8220;touched&#8221; by HSM 3, as it seemed to apply to us. HSM 3 was all about graduating, but still being together no matter what. And while I know that this is a fairytale ending, I know that its not impossible. It just takes effort and sincerity on each other&#8217;s part. Not all friendships can last forever, but some&#8230;just that special some&#8230;might come pretty close&#8230;</p>
<p>And I&#8217;ll do my best to keep my part of the deal with as many of the friends I cherish as possible. That&#8217;s a promise.</p>
<p>It was a pretty relaxing trip, except for one ironic occurence. Several months ago, I once posted about how Ying Hui, Akee and I boarded the wrong Mini Bus, and ended up stranded at the back of Sunway, leading to Puchong. And well&#8230;.guess what&#8230;.</p>
<p>Today, we boarded on the wrong bus AGAIN&#8230;and realised it at the exact same time as I did before&#8230;and alighted, and found ourselves stranded on the EXACT SAME STOP as I was those months back.</p>
<p>It was darn ironic for me. What happened to &#8216;once bitten, twice shy&#8217;? To repeat the exact same mistake TWICE, at the exact same place. Gosh&#8230;..</p>
<p>But this time, everyone chose NOT to be ripped off by the taxi drivers and to walk to the nearest bus stop instead. As far as I can remember, that happened to be Sunway College and so, we all began to trudge there.</p>
<p>A taxi driver stopped us when we were almost there, and this one was a really nice fellow who charged us a very reasonable price. Once again, I returned tired, but with the warm glow that comes from being around people you truly care about.</p>

<p>I&#8217;ll be out with Lee Ling and Sharon in a few days&#8230;more to write about then&#8230;and also, I&#8217;m way overdue in posting about Ing Ing&#8217;s birthday, and the road towards SSABSA. Never mind, let it be the next post then&#8230;for now, I need a break to regain the gazillion hours of lost sleep&#8230;..</p></div>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>Yay! Xian che is here to join us. I wish I can find a way to transfer your old posts from multiply to here too. Just called Shu just now and she told me she&#8217;ll get to planning our Octaves gathering after she finish with her post-exam-stress-release spree. Xian, if you have problem navigating the site feel free to ask me. I also took long hours to explore and edit the blog too&#8230;</p>
<p>  In the mean time I&#8217;ll update on the many months that I haven&#8217;t been blogging. So instead of moving to deviantart as mentioned in my previous post, now I&#8217;ve made a joint blog for us all. True, I&#8217;ve been spending a lot of time at home lazying around, but there were times when I&#8217;ve also been busy for some time. Like when I have to apply through UCAS to try out my luck in applying to UK uni, and then I also applied to ANU and Sydney in case I didn&#8217;t manage to get Cambridge (which I most probably won&#8217;t but we&#8217;ll hear the results in Jan). Then I had to prepare for the Cambridge interview which i will relate the experience next time. And also I finally get on to having driving license and finally passing to get a P at the end of October. It was a just pass, right on the dot, 16/20. I know most people enjoy learning driving at first, but I have to tell you I actually feel pretty stressed out during driving lessons because it feels like I keep doing one mistake after another. I&#8217;m just glad that it&#8217;s over and I&#8217;m eligible to drive now, though i still have to go through practise sessions with my mum.</p>
<p>  Besides that, my mom underwent operation, to remove a ureteral tumour that spoilt her right kidney. I thank my lucky stars that it was benign, not cancerous. It was a pretty emotional week when my mum realized she lost her kidney, the shock and the tears, with the addition that my dad was not around during that time. With luck, he managed to come back in time just before my mum went in for the operation. It lasted for about 5-6 hours long, from 6pm in the evening to 1 am. Due to an emergency case, my mum&#8217;s operation was delayed this late. To Dr. Tan, I give my salute, you were indeed expensive, but you work hard and were dedicated to your patients. Life as a really good doctor is not easy indeed, imagine, working until 1-2am. And to both my Xiao Yi and Aik Howe Gogo, a million thanks for taking the extra leave off work and staying with us, taking care of my mum, comforting and assuring her and just being there for us through times of difficulty. This deed I swear will not go unremembered.</p>
<p> Following that, my dad went to check his kidney stuff too and went for bladder stone clearing. So they both stayed at home for about a month. My dad just went back to work, but my mom is still home now as she has a heavy operation, with large incision that still hurts to this day. But she&#8217;s recovering well with less and less pain each passing day and is so much better now. So I&#8217;ve only spent like a week or two taking real good care of her. </p>
<p>  I&#8217;m also suppose to learn how to cook! Jeez, so I actually spent a few sessions helping out in the kitchen and trying to learn some skills. I have yet to attempt to cook anything on my own though. The only thing I managed to cook by myself was Miso soup. Yes, I know how to cook miso soup&#8230; lolx! It&#8217;s fairly simple.</p>
<p>And on a few occasions went out to spent time with my buddies, had farewell for Choey Ling who has now flown off to ireland, celebrated my birthday, spending Shu&#8217;s money on a very expensive lunch, going out with Eva, Liyi and Isabell to celebrate early Eva&#8217;s birthday.</p>
<p>  That pretty sums out how I&#8217;ve been spending Sep-Nov, besides onlining for long hours almost everyday and doing art, graphics tags etc&#8230; while most of my friends are all busy studying through their hectic uni life and I spent like probably 1/100 of their energy throughout the many months.<br />
And i tell you, even with lazying around, time still flies past as fast as when I was still studying. And I also miss studying. Can you believe that?</p>
<p>  And now, I&#8217;m in charge of organizing my Ama&#8217;s 85th birthday at home. Steamboat dinner with relative around. Haih!&#8230; But I&#8217;m looking forward to seeing you guys too and spending time with you all since holiday is upon us now. You guys are invited to come to my house too anytime, just give me a call! =D</p>
<p>ps. and like how shu has lost two mobile phones this year, I have also SPOILED two mobile this year. It&#8217;s a terrible year for mobiles&#8230; I&#8217;m gonna get a second-hand one next time.</p>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>Hey, boy.</p>
<p>Its been 2 years. I wonder, where are you now?</p>
<p>I had fun celebrating my housemate&#8217;s birthday just now. But even through the laughter, there&#8217;s something amiss; something that keeps nagging at my feelings. Somehow, it feels like an insult to you; not spending some time in silence to remember the 6 years we spent together&#8230;</p>
<p>I miss you. I miss you both. Even after I&#8217;ve moved on with my life, something seems incomplete with your sudden loss. The chapter isn&#8217;t closed. And well, what wouldn&#8217;t I give for a sign, a clue to where you are&#8230;</p>
<p>I keep seeing cases rescued from dog-catchers, and each one diminishes my hope of seeing you both again. For both our sakes, I wish that you&#8217;ve found a new loving home&#8230;even if it means you guys will forget me&#8230;As long as you are ok&#8230;</p>
<p>I&#8217;m sorry. As time goes by, I begin to lose the once familiar sensations of your fur&#8230;and the way you wriggle in delight when I ruffle the scruff on your neck. Sometimes, I am unable to require the trusting doggy grin you used to greet me, and the mischevious glint in Rocky&#8217;s eyes when he deliberately disobeyed me. But you both have never been far from my mind&#8230;never&#8230;often, incidents, articles and pictures can spark flashbacks of you both. My heart has grown to lavish new canine buddies with my unconditional love, but never can I forget you two&#8230;my most loyal confidants who were steadfastly there with me throughout the ups and downs of my entire secondary school life.</p>
<p>My greatest regret? Not celebrating your 6th birthday with the traditional celebration we had every year. I postponed it due to SPM, but in the end, it was too late.</p>
<p>I&#8217;m sorry. And I promise you, I&#8217;ll do my best to rescue all the animals I can. For you, for all the dogs that I&#8217;ve emotionally connected with, and for those that I&#8217;ve yet to.</p>
<p>Happy Birthday, Diamond.</p>
<p><em><strong>Also, Happy Birthday to my dear housemate, Ing Ing. Will update about the fun celebration we had after our chem paper. I just needed to record a testimony to my beloved Rocky and Diamond. Now, back to Chem.</strong></em></p>
<p>By the way, Happy Octaves Day&#8230;to the 7 wonderful people I know&#8230;</p>
