Christmas at Cameron Highlands

Merry Christmas readers....
Wow, Christmas is just amazing don't you think???
Well I just got back from a chilly, wonderful Christmas at Cameron Highlands...
I'm gonna let you know what I did there in sequence of days....
But please spend some time reading it yea XD ...
Who knows, you might want to do the same too then... haha
Anyways I'm writing it in detail to remember it very well next time in the future...
So do bear with how long it is....
And yea, of late I've enjoy taking photos thus I became a photographer and took photos very often..
But I will only upload a few of it here, the interesting ones of course....
You can always look for my photos through facebook....
Haha...
So here I go... (The photos are not uploaded yet... Give me some time and I will get it done)
(The empty spaces are actually meant for the photos so please bear with it for a while)

Day 1
It was 7 in the morning, my mum woke me up. We were suppose to get ready and leave at 9 to meet up with my dad's friends at the shell petrol station which is at the first rest stop when leaving Seremban. But my brother, Kevin, had to send his college assignment that day, so my dad took him to the college and went to buy some stuffs. Me and my eldest brother, Nicholas, were helping my mum to prepare whatever is left to be taken along asides from the ones we packed the night before. Mum did not sleep long the night before because she was busy preparing our meal, as planned, for dinner over at Cameron. Dad came back with my brother and it was already 9.45am ...We were late... We quickly put everything into the car and we were ready to go.... We arrived at the petrol station and it was already 10am.... The people who were gonna go for this holidays trip were...
Of course my family...
Uncle Das, his wife, Rosemary, his mother-in-law( I dunno her name but they call her nena, well thats how it sounds like) and his daughter, Audrey.
Then we have Uncle Matthew, his wife, Lourdes, and his children Sabrina, Pamela and Jeremiah...
Uncle Das told me and my brothers to get something to eat for our next stop will be far, a 2 hour plus drive to Tapah where we will meet up with his friends Mr.Selvam who is gonna treat us to lunch before heading up to Cameron. We went to get something to eat, but we made a mistake there... Why did we order waffles?? I wonder. It was bad enough they had to wait for an hour for us then we made them wait somemore... How stupid of us... I had a burger also... Later my dad came and bought some curry puffs....
By the time this was all done, it was already 10.30....
Then we were off to Tapah, I was reading my English literature book for next year as my teacher has asked to, which was titled Step by Wicked Step...
It was around 12.30 pm when we arrived at the Tapah rest stop...
We were waiting for Mr.Selvam to come and take us all for lunch..
Soon after, he arrived and we had our lunch at this Chinese restaurant...




After that, its time to head to the top of the hill...It showed 1.30pm on the watch...
Half way through, we turned off the air-cond and opened up the window to breathe in the fresh air of the hills...
I was feeling nauseous while we were going up the mountain but the fresh air really helped...
It took at least 2 hours to get to the top...
Well we did stop halfway up at Ringlet to add petrol and go to the toilet....
It was 3.30pm when we reached Tanah Rata and stopped in front of the Tourist Centre to wait for a man to show us the way to our apartment...
It was raining... The rain made the surrounding really cold... In fact it was almost freezing...
It was almost 4 o'clock when we got to the apartment...
We unloaded our stuffs from the car into the designated room...
Inside there was a kitchen, a living room, 2 bathrooms and 3 bedrooms...
Each family took one room each.... But there are some who move here and there though...
The apartments had Astro too... (Yippee!!!)
Fogs were surrounding the the place at that time....
There were very beautifully design bungalows located in front of the apartments... I did take a snapshot of it.. haha >.<




The fog lifted at around 5+ ...
The mothers were busy preparing dinner for the night... A tasty one too... Well it is Christmas Eve... What can I say... haha...
The rest of us were either taking our showers, watching television or having a chat...
At 6.30, everyone was ready to eat and were gathered at the table...
We had pie, roasted chicken, a spicy chicken too, salad and cauliflowers...
It was really well done, except the fact that the food were cold due to the cold whether at Cameron...
After dinner, I looked outside of our apartment through the window, the bungalow across the street was simply amazing with its lights on...



By 8.30 everyone was prepared to go to for mass (prayers), we took and a group photo then we headed off....




It was a school actually, SRK. Convent , the hall was well decorated for Christmas Eve Mass....






I took photos of us all seated....
At 9.30 the caroling started, I joined along as usual (because I love to sing)
My mum was so tired, she kept dozing off while we were caroling... Then Uncle Das asked me to take a photo of my mum sleeping.....








Poor mum, she was so tired because she did not sleep properly the night before and then had to help with the cooking when we got there....
Audrey dozed of too....Poor girl, she had a cough and was feeling sick that time.... And again, Uncle Das asked me to take a photo of her sleeping....(which I later used to disturb her... hehe XD )




The Mass went on till late night around 12am...But it was an awesome mass thanks to Father Eugene...
He is really a great priest... He made the mass so funny and meaningful.... He could speak in 5 different languages... English, Chinese, Tamil, Myanmar language and Malay.... Fluently... OMG!!!
He made the Gospel so interesting.... He even mentioned "Here in Cameron" while reading the gospel...
During the sermon, he took out a greeting card from some Jabatan or something...
When he tried to read the card ( it was the type of greeting card that will play a music when its opened), suddenly a music was played... Then he closed it, but then he opened it again... ahhh.. It was hilarious...
Anyways the sermon was about just one line... "Do not be afraid"
Then, later he mentioned about receiving SMS from three people in three different parts... He took his phone out... haha... It really was a laugh.. Then he said "What you think priest cannot have a phone ah??? Eh, my phone is cheap one ok?? Not like all yours RM2300 ones"
Then came the announcement at the end of Mass.... He explained about the fundraising that was going on to build the new church to accomodate the large amount of people....
Then he mentioned about the fruit cake and the french wine that was being sold...
At first he showed us the fruit cake, he was juggling it... It almost fell and everyone was like "Woahhh...." but he caught it...
Later, he took the wine from the altar server... This was the funny part... He was juggling the wine bottle too... Every juggle he did, everyone when "Woah.... Woahhh...."
Then he said " If you don't want me to drop this, then please buy it"
Haha.... he was great.... We then later took a photo with him....






Then we came home and had supper with what every food was left from dinner....
I went out a while to make a phone call to my friends back at Seremban to wish them Merry Christmas..
We drank red wine(for the adults) and sparkling juice (for the childrens) but me,my bro and Audrey drank red wine too...
Audrey and me drank a lot....
The adults were having a chat at the dining table, while the childrens were playing games over at the living room...
Soon after, the friendly couple which our parents actually met earlier , Dr.Jude (If I'm not mistaken) and his wife, Sheila came over to have a short chat....
The children (including me) were having fun at the living room playing games such as:

Murderer
In this game, we used cards to determine whether we are either the murderer, detective or the victim.
(Any type of cards can be used but we used UNO cards)
We used the number 2 as the victim, number 5 as the murderer and the skip card as the detective...
I got the detective on the first turn.... And I won easily after sharp observation...

Putoing
In this game, we move in a sequence to say " -a number- frog , jump in the water, putoing"
We must say the lines according to what the number is... For example...
one frog, jump in the water, putoing.... two frog, two frog, jump in the water, jump in the water, putoing, putoing...
It went on with the number sequence... the persone who says the line wrong or mentioned a line less or more than suppose to.... will get one "ugly" ... the person who gets three "ugly" will get a penalty...

Concentration
In this game, we all choose a name first...
And we must call out our name then the name of another person...
But the problem here is we must say the name correctly and following the beat of the clap...
So here is how it goes ...
We say together "This is the game of concentration" Then we say for example (my name was Jackie and Jeremiah's was Narasima) "Jackie , Narasima" Then is Jeremiah's turn and he says "Narasima , -a name- " It goes on till someone makes a mistake.... Again he used the "ugly" rule for the loser to get a penalty...


Ok, now I'm gonna explain what the penalty we used was.... The loser will do a very weird chicken type dance and go... Chicky Chicky Bang Bang, Chicky Chicky Bang Bang ... Breeee.... It was a weird dance that I have no idea how to explain... But luckily I did not do it.. Haha >.<
Aunty Lourdes, Pamela and Audrey did it...
When Audrey did it, she wanted to fall on the chair softly, but instead she landed hard and hit her head on the side of the sofa... I think she was drunk drinking too much of red wine...Poor girl, she was already having a slight fever and now she knocks her head...
I think I was a little drunk too, I knocked my cup of red wine and spilled it over the floor....
Later, I asked my dad to refill for me and he gave me SOOO much...
When everybody was heading for bed already around 2am... I was still awake trying to slowly finish my cup of red wine....
But I wasn't the last to sleep as I thought I will.... It was Jeremiah who was busy making a phone call to his girlfriend, Amrit...
Then I headed for bed when the clock showed 2.30 am...


Day 2
I woke up at 7.30 in the morning... It was super cold that I could die if I had stayed still any longer...(Its a good thing I got a sweater this time compared to a few years back when I came to Cameron without one)
I came out of the room.... The moment I stepped out of the plank wood floor to the tiled floor, I felt a crazy cold on the floor....WOOO!!! Then, I saw Uncle Matthew and his wife was awake... I greeted them "Good Morning" and sat on the chair that was also super cold....
At 8.30am , Aunty Lourdes ask me to follow Uncle Matthew to get some spoons, dishwash and a sponge because we lacked the proper utensils to eat and the dishwash there was very oily...
As Uncle Matthew and I were walking down the stairs to get to his car... We could barely see the way...
It was so cold that the morning dew covered almost everything that we can barely see...






When we came back, everyone was wide awake while the mothers were busy preparing breakfast which was hotdog, scrambled eggs, baked beans, rice fried with eggs and bread... It was tasty...
After breakfast, everyone was gathered at the living room and having a chat while waiting for the mothers to clear up the table and prepare to go for our trip around Cameron...
It was 10.30am when we were all ready and went down to the parking lot...
We took photos of the fog that was starting to lift a little...




Before heading to our first destination, we stopped at the Tourist Centre to get a map...
Our first destination was Father's Guest House where the Crib was located....
It was rather big for a crib... But sadly the real livestocks were not there yet for us to see...
It was yet another rainy day at Cameron... It started to rain as we got to the crib.... The first that attracted me when we got there was this "Shhhhh!!!!" sign....








Then we took some photos of at the crib.... After that we headed for the Healthy Strawberry Farm...










The place was BEAUTIFUL!!! There were a lots of plants and flowers to see... We could see the Strawberries being planted around....














It was a long pathway to get to the shops which was much higher above...
I was really excited to eat the strawberries as it was so tasty the last time I came here and ate it...
I got the strawberries with wheat cream that cost me RM9 and 2 packs of strawberries which cost me RM10...(sadly I forgotten to take a picture of my tasty wheat cream strawberry)
My dad then got 2 cups of ice-cream strawberry... He shared one with my mum and gave one to Audrey...
I told her that her cough is gonna get worse eating it and guess what?? It really did...




Then our next destination was the Time Tunnel....
When we got there, there was a long row of shop next door to it selling strawberries also (as there was many strawberry farm around Brinchang area and it is Cameron's trademark), organic vegetables (which the mothers bought and a souvenir shop ( I bought a skeleton glove)...
After shopping a little, we headed for the Time Tunnel...
We were all suppose to go in there together, but sadly it cost us RM5 per person so only 8 of us went in... Me and my two brothers, Audrey, Jeremiah, Pamela, Sabrina and Aunty Lourdes .... Which totaled up to RM40 to get our tickets....Well it was worth it... There were many of things that we don't get to see often inside....






After around 15 minutes or so walking in the Time Tunnel, we came out and went back to the cars....
Originally we planned to go further up of Brinchang towards the Rose Centre, the butterfly garden, the bee farm then the tea plantation.... But we did not because Uncle Matthew's car was releasing gas smell due to the amount of time the car had to break due to the traffic jam...
I bought a tasty looking chocolate strawberry while the adults were planning...





After discussing a while, we ended up heading back down towards Uncle Sam's Farm as Aunty Rose wanted to get a plant and buy a shirt for her son , Adrian, who did not come along...
While she and my mum were walking at Uncle Sam's Farm looking for the plants... Audrey, my eldest brother and me went to another place nearby that sell plants too.... It was very beautifully decorated....










After walking there a while, the three of us headed to Uncle Sam's Farm.... It was also very beautiful with a lots of plants being placed everywhere...





After everything was done there, we headed to the food court that was located nearby the Central Market....
We were suppose to eat at the food court but instead we looked for a Chinese restaurant because the food court sold only Malay food and everybody did not wanted to eat there... (No discrimination but we were hungry for Chinese food)
It was 3 o'clock when we found a Chinese restaurant....
We all ordered individual meals so that we would not waste the food as we did while eating down at Tapah (the children not the parents who wasted the food actually)
But things did not turn out the way it should have... The individual meals came out very big and again the food was wasted... I and my brothers finished ours though... Audrey shared hers with the rest of us to finish it... Jeremiah finished his too... Nena did not finish it because it was too much for her...
Again it was raining heavily, the hot afternoon suddenly turned into the same freezing cold weather we experienced on the first day but only colder....
We stayed at the restaurant for a while to let the rain settle down...
Later, we borrowed umbrellas from the shop owner to get to the cars and get our own umbrellas....
Aunty Rose and my mum headed for the Central Market to get the shirt for Adrian.... They finally did after going around so much... It was cheaper compared to the other shops they went to earlier....
When we got back it was around 4.30pm, I took photos and you can see how much colder it is now after the rain compared to yesterday....








We are gonna have our Christmas Day dinner at the apartment with Dr.Jude and his wife.... It was gonna be western style....
The parents were busy preparing the food with Sabrina's help (actually it was suppose to be the fathers) while the rest of the children were watching television... Again... haha....
Spiderman 2 was on and Spiderman 3 was next on the list with Jurassic Park later on the AXN channel....
At around 7.15, Uncle Das went down to call Dr.Jude and his wife over as the dinner was already prepared...
Half an hour passed and he did not came back yet, so I was sent down to call him...
At first everyone thought he was having a chat a totally forgotten about dinner, but actually Dr.Jude was busy feeding his (don't know mother or mother-in-law) before coming over....
It was 8 o'clock when we got back and it was time for a VERY VERY TASTY MEAL!!!
We had French Fries, fried chicken, mashed potatoes, salad, fishballs and well prepared burgers...






After that tasty meal, we opened the last bottle of red wine and sparkling juice... There was gas drinks too this time....
The children were not suppose to drink red wine but again Audrey and me took very little of the red wine...
After an hour or so of the adults talking and the children watching Spiderman, we went down to have a walk around the cold chilly streets of Cameron Highlands as Pamela suggested....
It was almost 10 o'clock when we went down....
The moment we reached the parking lot of the apartments, we could feel that chilly breeze of the night...
It was VERY COLD!!!
First we headed for the bungalows on the other side of the apartment....
We took some photos there...












The bungalow was so beautiful I did not believe we were actually still in Malaysia....
It seems more like England or something....
Later, we decided to walk down the the pathway down to the main road to see the beautifully decorated tree... ( so the children thought)
But halfway through Uncle Das stopped us and said "We are not gonna walk down all the way then later we have to walk back up" (or something like that)
So we stopped halfway and walked back up....








And so we went to the other area of the apartment....
We saw some shophouses there which we did not know was there earlier and then we found a playground...
We stopped there and took some photos and of course play with whatever was there haha...






By around 10.30pm to 10.45pm, we headed back to our apartment....
Most of them headed for bed early after such a long,tiring day and to get well rested to go to Church the next day....
But my brother Nicholas, Jeremiah, Audrey and me stayed up late to watch Spiderman 3 and then Jurassic Park which was broadcasted late that night....
I stayed up till around 12.30am and then I headed for bed...
My brother continued watching....

Day 3 ( The Final Day)
I was tired because I did not get enough sleep. While I was sleeping I was woken up by my mother who tried to take her stuff while my mattress on the floor was in the way. Then my brother, Kevin, woke me up too when he accidentally kicked my leg while making his way to the bathroom. It was early that morning around 7am that I woke up. It was at least an hour away from when I was woken up earlier by my mother and brother. I came out seeing Pamela lying down on the sofa. My mother had told me that she got asthma during her sleep. Pamela said that she already felt uncomfortable being going to sleep the night before. At around 4 she woke up from her sleep unable to breathe properly. She was afraid to head out to the sofa by herself. Luckily she heard my mum waking up to make a drink then only was she brave enough to head out of her room. Thank God my mum went out to make a drink. Otherwise who knows what might had happen.
Soon after when almost everyone was awake and prepared to go to church except Uncle Matthew's family....
Pamela was taken down to be checked by Dr.Jude....
Dr.Jude said she was alright but was adviced to be taken to the hospital nearby to do a check-up...
He personally took Pamela to the hospital before heading to church....
It was 9 o'clock when we got to the church (the same one) and we took some very beautiful pictures there of the flowers and the tiny crib there....
It almost seem like overseas when I took the photo of my mum with Aunty Rose...







Mass started and as usual it was funny thanks to Father Eugene....
After mass, we stayed back to help clear out the hall...
We moved chairs take out the decorations and stuff like that (Although we were not locals there)....
But because we helped we were able to enter the school chapel which was very beautiful...






By the time we were finished helping (not 100% because we had to go back to the aparment to check out at 12 o'clock) it was already 11.30am, we took another group photo at the church together with Father Eugene....






After that we headed back to our apartment.
We packed and everything before leaving...
But as we were about to leave, we saw Dr.Jude and his wife in their house...
They invited us in and of course the long chat begins....
Sheila gave us some ginger cookies and some fruit cakes....
One of the fruit cake was plain and the other one of the fruit cake was with a white icing... It was sugar I think, not so sure...
And again we took one last group photo with Dr.Jude and his wife, Sheila this time....
Not forgetting Dr.Jude's mother (or mother-in-law...Again, I'm not sure XD )
By 12.30pm, we made our leave to head back home...
On the way back, we decided to head to the tea plantation and the bee farm as we did not go to it the day before....
Anyways, we will pass them so we might as well make a stop at these two places....
It took at least 15 minutes for us to get to the tea plantation, Cameron Valley...
The plantation was huge!!!
Just looking at it makes me kind of wonder how they pluck everything manually....
It almost seems crazy!!!
We headed inside to have tea....
While the adults were waiting getting a place to sit and ordering the tea, the children headed down to the plantation....
Namely myself, Audrey, Pamela, Jeremiah, Sabrina and my eldest brother, Nicholas.
It was not easy walking on the plantation's pathway....
It was muddy and kinda steep...
It makes me wonder even more how difficult is it to move around and collect the tea leaves...
We took some photos halfway down the plantation...





After that we headed back up to drink our tea...



After drinking our tea, we were off to our next destination, the Bee Farm....
It was around 1.30pm when we got there....
The place was in quite a rural area and was not as beautiful as I expected it to be...
But it was amazing seeing the bees flying around the places and not getting stung by it... haha XD
There was one very amazing thing though, it was a casing that looks like a beehive...
It had lots and lots of bees in it moving around...
It was simply amazing just looking at it...
And as usual I took photos of it....




I was enjoying myself there trying to scare Audrey using the bees....
And I managed to scare her twice...
When I tried it on Uncle Das it did not work though...
Then he asked me to try it on Sabrina and it worked.... hehe >.<
By around 1.45pm to 2pm we left the bee farm....
Before leaving we decided to stop at the waterfall on the way down the hill...
But Uncle Matthew did not approve of it....
So we headed down...
Even though stopping at the waterfall was disapproved, we stopped there anyways....
The place was packed, there was hardly any parking...
After driving quite far away from the waterfall, we finally found a place to park...
My family along with Jeremiah, Audrey and Uncle Das headed for the waterfall while the rest stayed back with the cars....
It was almost three when we got to the waterfall...
Only me, Jeremiah, Audrey, Uncle Das and my eldest brother, Nicholas went down to the water.
My parents and my second brother Kevin stayed up and watched...
The water there was just amazing...
The moment I put my leg into the water I felt so relaxed...
Its natural water, what can I say??? It's natural.... Haha XD
And of course we took photos for memories...





After all the resting and relaxing, we continued our journey down the hill of Cameron Highland...
It was a long one and a half hour down the hill....
We finally got down at around 4pm and headed to Mr.Selvam's house to have our lucnh (It was almost tea time... haha )
We did not stay there long....
After eating the delicious meal prepared by Mr.Selvam's wife, we sat for a while to have and chat....
I was talking with Mr.Selvam's children and got to know this cute son of his, Praveen...
I took a photo of him while he was playing with Audrey's handphone...
He just loved playing handphone games that he went around and asked almost all of us to borrow our handphone to him...
After all that, it was time to leave and we thanked Mr.Selvam for the meal....
It was time for us to head back home...
There is to be no stop....
A long 2 hours (more or less) drive to get back to Seremban....
We did stop at the Tapah rest area to buy some fruits and fill up the car's petrol....
Again, I was reading the second half of my English literature book on the way home...
And as usual there was a traffic jam on the highway...
On the way back, we saw this weird view in the skies....
It seem like as though there was 3 different parts....



Finally we got home....
It was almost around 8pm when we got back....
Ahhh.... What a holiday trip....
I never thought that I would experience something so nice for Christmas....
I wanted to stayed back home at Seremban at first because I wanted to go to church and meet up with my friends...
But I do not regret going there...
It was fun and memorable....
I hope that everyone gets to enjoy their holidays and hope that it will be a memorable one....

Friendship- What it means to me now more than before

Hey readers,
I am feeling kinda down when I wrote this... Well better already actually...
This was how I felt since yesterday evening till now...

I was planning to go to the Christmas Campaign for the Poor caroling yesterday, it was at 7pm...
But I was so obsessed with what I was doing until 6.30...
Then while at was taking a shower, I remembered it all of a sudden....
I have forgotten....
It was too late already at that time...
It was showing 6.45pm on the clock...
I asked my mum and dad whether I can go...
My mum was busy that time preparing for todays BEC caroling...
I was arguing with my mum until she mentioned... "Why never tell earlier??"
Then I replied, "I forgotten lah!!!"...I said it with a hurt in my heart...
I shed tears all alone on the bed after that....
First of all is because I have forgotten something so dear to me that I wanted to do... To go for the caroling with my dear friends...
Secondly, I shouted at my mother...
Third, I am angry with myself for forgetting something that important to me.....
I shed tears all alone on the bed after that....
Till later that night I realised something when I open my cupboard...
I had only one red shirt to use for caroling....
I have to go for the BEC caroling the next day, which is today...
Then I realised God actually had sent a message to me saying... "Don't worry my child. You may have missed that particular caroling. You still have many times to come to spend with your friends. It matters not whether you go for this caroling or not. In the end you have joined the BEC caroling after all the years of staying behind. You are still gonna sing praises to me for my birthday."
I put a smile on my face...
Another thing I realised soon after was that I can still see my friends and give them the Christmas hug I'm gonna miss for not being during Christmas Eve this year for my family is gonna go to Cameron Highlands with my dad's friends....
I saw merely a few of them though but its a wonderful gift just to see them for Christmas.... XD

The thing about Friendship that feels so wonderful

Hello readers,
How are you today??
I hope you are fine...
You might be wondering why I ask this today because today I'm gonna blog a little about friends today...
And you are my friend by reading this blog so I must know that you are doing fine... haha >.<
Do you have a friend??? Well I know I do... Many wonderful ones in fact...
So what is a friend???
What makes having a friend feel so wonderful??
Well, heres what I think about friendship...

Before we enter into the world of others, we were always stuck in our own world...
That world is our house...
Just a small enclose place where you only know your family and meet only people who come by or your parents visit....
Its a small world at that time...
Then it advances towards pre-school and later on to primary and then secondary school...
This is where our world begins to become bigger as we enter into the community...
Now at this point we begin to make friends....
Well friends can be of all sort....Depending on what type of people you meet....
It can be good, funny, naughty, bad all whatever type of friends.... You name it...
Well the thing is, no matter what or who they are, the sort of personality they have does not really matter...
Everyone is special the way they are so to say (I will write on being special in another post haha XD)
And so we communicate to make friends...

After all I said you must be wondering what is wonderful about this all huh???
Well the thing is... Nobody in this world is born perfect....
Whether in sense of physical or mental.... Nobody is perfect...
Only God is perfect....
Is because we are made in his image, we are all given a small part of his talents....
Whatever we can do... God can do....
So this small bits of talents, knowledge or whatever it is....
Is separated to mankind all around the globe (No idea if there are live forms like us out there)
All this imperfect part.... Scattered....

I think God did this on purpose.... So to say....
To give us a big task, which is to create that perfection by making friends....
Everybody with their talents when put together becomes something great...
One person can only do so much, but together we create a miracle....
Like how scientists work together to research on something...
Like how surgeon and the nurses help each another to perform a surgery...
Like how we as a community help on another in our daily life...
All this act of helping one another eventually creates friendship.....

In my tale of friendship, I've met so many nice and wonderful people....
Whether in person or virtually through social networks....
When we are down, we look for friends first most of the time....
Its because in the presence of a friend, we find this sense of joy.... An unexplainable feeling... A wonder...
The perfection created between to people....
But I'm not saying this wonder can't be found at home with our family...Its possible...
But its so much more nicer to find that sense with people other than our family...
God did not wanted us to be perfect so that we would not only depend on ourself too much that we don't make friends....

Friends are people we can share almost anything with...
Our worries...
Sorrow...
Anger...
Joy... 
Stories...
Tales...
Pain....
Love...
All sorts....
We can find this sense of love for one another once we reach a certain level of friendship...
We will start to care more for one another and just seem to miss each other more often...
I'm not talking about the lovey dovey kind of love.... I'm talking about the friendly love... 
This feeling is so wonderful once its found....

Well, I think I've said too much on this topic... haha...
Anyways, I've experienced this sense of love for one another already....
I hope you have....
Because if you haven't.... You better find it...
Its beautiful and magical.... Again, unexplainable...
Well all the best to you all readers.... To find your friends that you can feel this sense of perfection...
And a piece of advice.....Everyone is considered friend, only if you make the effort to be friends....

The First and Last Day of my First ever job

Today was my first day of work...
I'm suppose to go through 10 days of hell...
But thats not what it seems like...

Here is what happened...
This morning I woke up with the thought of not going to work...
I think I actually felt nervous to go to work for the first time ever... I felt like puking a few times...
I even felt like falling sick since yesterday after I came home from Jusco after hanging out with my friends...
I got there around 8.50 or so to make a good first day impression...
Guess what... I waited for a whole freaking hour just for the supervisor, Encik Mazihan ( actually a friendly big guy) , to attend to me...
While waiting I saw many people walking in and out of the staff entrance...
I was asked once too many times why I was waiting there or whether I am a casual worker or whatever that came across their mind...
Soon a nice, soft-spoken young man, Sani, came in to report for duty too...
It was his first day too but he is taking full time...
I had a little conversation with him and we became friends.... But not so close though...
Around 10+ , Encik Mazihan attended to the both of us....
Before going to the admin's room, we were to have a body check , show our identity card ( IC ) and put our bags in the man's locker room...
We went up the unfamiliar pathway in the building towards the admin's room....
We were both seated on an empty desk and Sani was asked to fill a form and later a photo of him was taken...
After all that was done, we were shown around the very familiar parts of the building...
But the thing is he was explaining about how things work around here...
I found out that the staffs (or maybe just Encik Mazihan) followed the Japanese culture which is to bow the moment we come out of the staff area into the working zones...
Jusco is actually split to two different parts.... The Store Department and the Complex Department ...
We were both shown around until we reached the Store Department, which is where they sell the groceries or as we know it as the supermarket....
He took us to the storage room where everything was piled up high....
He introduced us to the guards and showed me how to punch a card ( Yay!! First time punching a card)
After all was explained, Sani was dedicated to another nice man, an experienced worker of course, Encik Fariq...
While I was being shown to where my job is located at...
And guess what??? My job is to actually do what I told everyone I was gonna be paid for... To "Stand and Smile" .... My job is to guard the hampers.... What the hell kind of job is that???
I started work at 11 (according to the time stated after I punched my card)...
I stand at that particular spot for a whole 2 hours.... VERY VERY LONG 2 HOURS!!!
It felt like the time would not even pass by....
The first hour I was standing there happily.... The 2nd I was already half dead I think....
Sani and I were bored like crazy during the 2nd hour.... We had nothing to do actually...
At around 1.20 , Sani and I went to ask the security guard at the staff entrance about our break time....
Well we were way pass our break time, we were not sure about it....
Sani headed off to the mosque for his Friday prayers while I headed to the canteen (actually the Food Court) to have my lunch, Nasi Lemak.... Yummy !!! My mum bought it this morning....
The annoying thing about being a staff is you always have to go for a body check whenever you going out of your working area...Even when heading to eat... LOL!!!
After I was done eating, I went to the toilet (because I had hold it for almost 4 hours since I came) and I returned to the locker to keep my stuff....
Then I walked around a little and finally went to sit on a bench near the World of Feng Shui....
I had a horrible headache.... I was sitting there actually dead >.<


After around an hour or so, I headed back down through the staff entrance to go through the security and enter back to the Store Department to return to my boring old post....
Well the problem people had and all did help me occupy just a little, very little bit of time...
For example, the first man I helped today before my break was showing him to the weighing counter.
Then, a man came by and asked something related to the rice packs he was holding...
He spoke in Chinese so I was not sure, I asked him to speak to the supervisor nearby... Hehe..
Then an unsatisfied customer told me about the cashier charging him an extra 28 ringgit for the cooking oil he bought...
A lady asked me stuffs regarding the hampers...
Besides all that, I saw some of the people I knew...
Some saw me while others did not....

Anyways I was working at the hamper section like I said earlier....

This is it... I stoned there like crazy...

Right in front of this place, the Big Apple's Donut and Coffee...

The thing that actually got me going a little today was this CUTE!!! FUNNY!!! BIG BLUE BEAR MASCOT!!!
                                                     
At first I took a snapshot of it from my working post....

Then later I roamed a little and took its photo nearby...
Its adorable isn't it???
Many kids gave different reactions when they saw it...
They either get excited, laughed like crazy, or cried...
Hahahahha!!!
But the picture is nothing compare to what he was doing...
I don't know how to explain but his actions was very very funny ^^

Later around 4 after 2 long hours of waiting at my post, Encik Fariq came and ask me whether I was tired at my post...
So he asked me to help with this group of Indonesian man I think with the stocks...
We are to remove the products which are expired or about to be expired...
It is 3 months for local products and 1 month for imported products...
Meaning if it is dated to expire within January to March for local products we are to remove them so they can be replaced with new ones...
That really helped me to pass the time a little...
And then there came a time where these group of man asked me to go to the cereal corner by myself to do the whole row of it....
And guess what.....
I came up with this many items...

Most of it were expired 3 months ago...
So the lesson I learnt here is always check your product's expiry date before purchase...
And then it finally reached...
Time to go BACK!!!
As I was about to leave, Encik Fariq asked me where Sani went...
I realised though before he asked, that Sani never actually came back...
Its either he got too bored of it and did not wanted to come back, or something just happened...
I told Encik Fariq that I am gonna head back home...
I went to the security for yet another body check and returned my pass to them...
Then I headed out and called my mum who was here earlier to pick me up from the back door...
I explained what happened to my mum...
I told her how BOOOOOOORRRRRRRIIIIIINNNNNGGGGG!!!!!
This job was....
And finally when I came home, I felt a little sick...
I could not stand this job for another day...
So after much talking with my mum I decided to quit tomorrow...
Do you know that standing on a spot for an extended amount of time is crazy...
I thought of all the things I could possibly think of to pass the time until I went totally blank in my head...
Time did not even pass at all...
For example, when I looked at the watch it was around 3...
When I looked at it again only 3 minutes passed..
I stopped looking at my watch and space out for a little..
Another 3 minutes...
And it went on and on and on...
This could be the worst experience in my life yet...
I hope you all don't get this sort of experience ever....

Moments never forgotten/ My day in Jusco with my 'Family'

Today was yet another wonderful time spent with my 'Family' which I have explained about in my previous post...
As usual the ideal place to hang out with friends around here is JUSCO!!!
It was all well planned through Facebook...
But the thing is, I never planned to go for this, what they all called 'ROMBONGAN' 
But last night, Samantha, my dear friend, asked whether I was coming or not...
At first it was a "No" , but later after talking for a while I said "I'll try my best to come ok??"
And in the end I got a lot of screwing from my mum because I have been spending a lot of money of late, but I went to Jusco...
It was Calvin's birthday, but we celebrated his along with Brendan for Brendan's birthday was just three days away...
I got there and met up with some of them, then we headed for the cinema...
There we saw Brendan all alone who have been waiting for around 30 minutes or so...
We bought tickets and waited for the rest there..
When everyone was here we headed to have lunch at KFC...
Most of us did not eat, which we so called "Diet" .... hehe >.<
Later, Sonia and Esther said they wanted to go to the toilet...
They had it all planned but I think I was the only blur case who did not know that they were gonna surprise the birthday boys...
By the way, I did not had lunch :(
Sonia and Esther actually went to get a birthday cake for them...
They came back with a cake( like I said) with lighted candles of course... 2 candles for 2 boys... hehe XD
We sang a birthday song a took a photo together... Sadly, Elysia, who was not suppose to be with us, did not dare to take a photo with us because she is afraid her mum will find out if it gets posted on Facebook...
We sat there for some time, I shared Brendan's fries and had some of the cake to fill my hunger...
We sat there till it was almost time for us to head for the movie we wanted to watch, Narnia....
Samantha bought a big box of popcorn... Big like as in BIG!!!
And everyone bought whatever they wanted... Not everyone (including myself... coz I came with only RM20)
We shared the popcorn while watching the movie, I think I ate a lot (Coz I was hungry lol >.< )
Anyways the movie was awesome, because I'm a crazy guy when it comes to battle and myth related stuffs, and Narnia is one of them...
It was 2 long hours in that cold, dark cinema room (number 5 hehe ^^ )
We came out and headed for bowling, but sadly not everyone played....
But it was fun, I got a total of 119 score today hehe.... So many strikes and spares ^^
Whenever I see them laugh or smile, I just feel this sense of happiness...
Its like sharing what they feel, its an awesome feeling....
They when for a second game, but my thumb was hurt from the first so I did not join this time....
After that, Sonia and Judy went to play at the basketball machine for a while and then he headed off to McDonald's to eat... Again!!
On the way, we saw Natasha with her mum at the money changer, to change money of course, as they were going to go to Hong Kong the next day...
Daryl went home feeling stressed that he had to go for karate for the second time today while we were eating, and then Samantha headed home too after eating...
After eating, Judy and Sonia wanted to head for Silver Dragon ( or the other way round... I not sure >.< ) , to get their ear pierced (although they already had their ears pierce many times before)
On the way there, Esther left us too... So sad :(
Anyways, ear- piercing is no fun thing to watch...
When I saw that stapler gun looking thing to pierce the ear, I could just imagine how painful it would have been...
Sonia and Judy had their ear pierced (Ouch!!), Brendan was excitingly watching how it was done, I was blur just wondering how painful it is gonna be and Francisca was so scared to watch she actually closed her eyes..
After that painful experience (even though it was not being done on me), Francisca went home with SOMEONE!!! ( I don't want to mention) walking her out.... hehe XD
We went to the arcade again for a game of pool...
Boys vs. Girls 
Brendan and me vs. Sonia and Judy
Horrible, boys lost to girls :'(
Used the remaining tokens to play Time Crisis 2 with Brendan...
Sonia went home...
We all called our parents...
Reached the ground floor and I bid my farewell to the those who were still around (Calvin, Brendan, Judy, Wendy) with a nice big hug....
I just love all of this people...
They make me feel so complete in life, its like they make life so beautiful...
I am really blest just to know them, and I hope everyone feels blest with the friends they have...
Friends are magical, they give you a sense of belonging....
Dear readers, I will write on something about friendship in my point of view in another post to come...
But now I have to head for bed because I'm starting work tomorrow.... Haha...
So good night everyone (If it is night when you read this post... Haha XD )

2010 Youth Camp

Exactly a week from the confirmation camp...
Our annual Youth Camp but this time we had it in the Catholic Center due to the renovations being done in the church the hall can't be used...
Today was a great day...
The moment I arrived I ran towards my friends, regardless boy or girl, and gave them a big 'bear' hug....
I missed them so much thats why I did that....
For today's one day camp, we had Eric( A happy-go-lucky looking person)
As the sessions went on I realised his style of speaking has some similarity to Martin Jalleh...
Until he mentions that he knows Martin, my curiousity was answered....
His sessions were fun though...
I got blindfolded, again like some years back in another youth camp, and the team members who got 'cacated' are not allowed to speak while only the normal person can...
We were instructed to build a tower out of newspaper...
Ideas were flowing in my head but I was unable to speak, but the team did well( though the tower was unstable)
The sessions went on and it got more exciting...
I learnt something new today, about people who attend camps like this...
1) People who are forced to come are known as 'Prisoners'
2)People who come to have fun like crazy are known as 'Vacationers'
3) People who come to learn and ask questions are known as 'Explorers'
And another thing about fun, there are 2 types of fun...
1)Fun as in fun
2) Monkey fun, meaning a type of fun to attract everyones attention
And another thing...(I'm not sure how to spell it but thats how it sounds like)
1)Introverts, Quiet people that think before talking
2)Extroverts, Talkative people who talk before thinking
And something about HABIT...
Habits are never really thrown that easily because:
-When you throw away the H, you still have ABIT
-When you throw away the A, you still have BIT
-When you throw away the B, you still have IT
Eric sure made a lot of sense in this....

Finally I want to write a funny joke here that Eric told us,
Eric has a friend who is working as a air attendant(if I think thats what its called)
So one day there was a longgggggg que and it was a big group of people trying to get on this flight,
So this one man cut the que and came in front saying "I have to get on that plane now"
She replied "Sir, I will attend to you but you have to que up"
And he asked, "Do you know who I am? Do you know who I am?"
So she went to the PA system and said "Can anyone come to the counter now to identify this man? He does not know who he is."
And of course this man got pissed so he says "F**k you"
She replied, "Sir, even if you want to F**k me you this have to que up"

Hahahha, this joke was hilarious...
In short I learnt a lots of new things today....
Eric is awesome but still not as awesome as Martin...
He comes 2nd to Martin though...

The Confirmation Camp, A camp that touched many and changed us

The Confirmation Camp...
Its not any normal camp I have ever known in my life...
We were the first badge of confirmation students to have our camp at Starfresh Agro Park...
A beautiful place away from the real world, calm, relaxing, comforting....
It may not be the best place in the world, but its a place I will forever remember...
It is where I found the new me.... A place where everybody found their newself...
We have learnt many new things from this camp...
We started out by hanging envelopes around the room, each with our own name written on it...
We were later explained about what it was for, we were all to write affirmation notes to each other..
For this camp, a motivator like no other was sent to us, Martin Jalleh, a man who I think is truely blest to run a camp...He helped us find ourselves in this camp...
He is a very funny man yet at the same time spiritual...
He can make us laugh at almost any time... Very funny man..
He uses videos and songs for teaching us also...
Beautiful videos and songs like the Taize's Bless the Lord Chant, Mary Did you Know,You Raise Me Up,Hero, a voice that amazed all- Susan Boyle, a man that shows us how fortunate and blest we are- Tony Melandez, how much an Earthly father can love his child- Team Hoyt, and how people can work miracles together- The Vocapeople....
He taught us through three different perspective- I,You(others) and God
We have learnt to be happy for who we are and to have faith in ourselves will lead us to greatness. We must never fear what others think of us.
We have to always know ourselves first to know others. We asked ourselves, "Who am I?" . We have to be ordinary to be extraordinary, like an empty cup which can be filled by God's blessings.
We always have a choice in life....
Then, we leant about God's love...
His love is first love, which means he always searches for us first, it is never us who searches for God.
His love is sacrificial.
His love is steadfast. Emeth which means Truth. The reliability, dependability and faithfullness of God to us.
His love is an affirming love.
And finally his love is humorous.
He answers our prayers in his own mysterious way.
The image of God in our head was always painful, but Martin has taught us that God does not necessary have to always be sorrowful but he can also be joyful.
The Laughing Christ

He has taught us the meaning of the sign of the cross which means by the power and authority of God.
But apart from all he taught us.. Nothing was as wonderful as the inner healing session....
It was the first time I have ever been through inner healing...
It is the best experience I have ever had in my whole life...
We were all sitting apart in the room with the lights off...
Martin then played a very beautiful song and an image of Jesus was projected on the screen.
Everyone was sitting in the silence.
While that was happening, we all closed our eyes and he speaks.
He asks us to recall the times of our hurts,to forgive, to thank, to reflect...
As we recall the hurts in our lives, tears of sadness roll down our eyes.
A great and strong presence was felt, like as though God was holding me around his arms and crying with me, feeling all my hurt.
While we were crying, the cathechist, the sisters(nuns), and Martin moved around and said a prayer for each of us one by one.
It was a very touching prayer and it was a weird but wonderful feeling...
I cried a lot and I feel so much more for others who have more hurt than I do...
I feel so sad when I realise how little of love I show to God when he loves me so much, I realise how much my parents love me, I feel sad that I have not said " I love you" to them for so long, I realise how fortunate I am to have such a happy family...
After the inner healing session, I felt so light,like as though all the weight I have for years have just been lifted away as we surrender ourselves to God.
This has changed us, the way we think, the way we see things, the way we feel....
After the inner healing session, everyone went around hugging and comforting one another...
I have never seen all my friends,my companion feeling so much of hurt before...
As I hug them, I felt their pain,their hurt...
I could feel it like as though it was mine...
A friend of mine, Julian, told me this, "I feel very stupid because it took us 16 years to realise all this". And I agree with him a 100%
If we had not pause like the traffic light, like Martin said, Stop, Look and Go, to be in silence, we would not have realise this...
It takes a man like Martin to keep us in this warm silence with the presence of God...
On the final day of this 3 day camp, he gave us a talk on sex education, I find it very useful to us teenagers for it gives us an awareness of what is happening...
It was necessary for us, especially if we are involved in anything like that...
Watching pornography, masturbation, pre-marital sex,etc...
And finally, the parent's session, when we were to sing a beautiful song to our parents, "You Raise Me Up"....
As we sang this song, the parents shed tears, it was sung so beautifully, I felt like it but I did not cry...
Then all of us went to our parents and gave such a warm hug...
In all my life I have never felt such a warm hug as I hug my mother and told her "I love you, ma"...
It has been so long since I last told her that, and it is all thanks to Martin that I was able to do it...
And as we prepare ourselves to head home, everyone again hugged one another saying "I'm gonna miss you,Love you bro/sis, Take care"...
We felt so sad that it was time for us to have been connected to one another by God's love to part our ways...
But it was happy too because we are about to return back to our own family, a new and more holy, more aware Catholic person...
I decided to take the bus home, to be with my family in Christ, just a last few moments of the camp on the journey home to the Church..
We all asked Martin for his signature and promised to keep in touch...
This camp has made us realise that we are one with God in all we do...
Meeting new friends and a growing bond with old ones...
Overcome what we have sealed in our hearts for years...
To forgive ourselves and others, to release all our angers,fears and guilt...
To be prepared for the world...
To be a new person through confirmation...
To say "Yes" to God's call.....

Samantha's Awesome Sweet 16th Birthday Bash

21st of November 2010,
An awesome day I will never ever forget...
It was my friend's, Samantha, sweet 16th birthday 'dance' bash(its not her actual birthday thought.. lol)
I started off by heading to Raymond's house to follow him to get to the Sungai Ujong Club where the party was being held..
We got there later than the stated time, but what the heck, nobody ever comes early...
Not everybody was there yet, we arrived at the front door of the hall and Joseph signed the attendance/wish book for Raymond, himself, Abel and me....
We were of course greeted by all our friends...
We took our place on a table at the back, which I later change to another table with my other friends...
I was glad that all my friends were around especially Julian, my classmate from school....
At first I was like, "I'm not gonna dance... No way... I'm gonna stick to the shadows" nonsense like that....
But the performance started to get to me....
The man who danced like Michael Jackson, the chinese boys who did the dance cover for se7en's song Digital Bounce, the kids who did a wonderful group dance, the hot German girls who did what they do best,DANCING!!! , and course the most important person of the day, the DJ!!!
They got the crowd pumping....
Of course there were food for dinner...
After dinner we had this fun game....Its a dancing game.... The rules were simple... Dance with a partner and remain standing on the newspaper after the song stops...
It went on to folding the newspaper....But now there was a change in rules.... Dance off the newspaper and get on it when song stops....
I lasted a while but my big feet got the better of me when the paper got too small....HAHA!!
Then the finals for the games was hot like crazy... It got all the guys crazy.... Those German girls were doing a freakin hot dance on stage while the final 4 competitors were dancing on the dance floor...
Later the 4 German girls came down and dance with each one of the competitors.... It was like a freakin nightclub.... they were awesome and hot at the same time....
The crowd went wild.... And when the song stopped, the competitors quickly got on the paper....
At a count of 5 one of the group lost balance and the winner was decided....
And then the best part of the day came.... The DJ announced, "The dance floor is now open to everyone"
Damn, I went crazy all of a sudden, my point at the start of the day to not dance just faded off...
I told Julian to join me at the dance floor.... Everyone was dancing....
But then Jonathan, Luke and me thought of the best thing ever..... A DANCE OFF!!! WOOT!!
We really busted some moves.... I showed off some of my moves of course... I never even knew I had it in me to do it....
The crowd went wild.... The cheering of the crowd makes you go crazy when you hear them...
It was an awesome feeling ..... Three of my life desire was fulfilled that day...
1)To dance in a nightclub
2)To have a dance off
3) To show off my dance skills
I am freakin happy now *cheese* .... hahahaha!!!
Sadly not everyone had it in them to show off their dance moves on the dance floor...
For the boys only a few of us bust a move the most... It was me, Luke, and Jonathan... The chinese boys that performed earlier danced too..
The girls had an advantage because that had 4 pros which were the German girls...
We danced off for quite a long time.... Till the girls took over the dance floor as the boys got tired..
Everyone sat at the back to have a chat... Eventually the girls got tired...
Some of us had the dancing spirit till the very end.... I was one of them and so was Brendan, Zeke, John, Julian and some others.... We danced like there was no tomorrow...
Until the last 15 minutes, I managed to get the crowd at the back to dance till the last song...
It was and awesome night... I night I will never forget....
I really thank Sam for it and the DJ for being with us till the end...
I hope we can do something like this again..... Till then readers

A day at Jusco for 4 Basilian, the best class ever

OMG!!! Readers I haven't blog like almost the last I can even remember....
I'm so sry.... Busy wit exams and some other things....
Well I have a shit load to blog about but don't worry....
Wat I left out when in came into my head before I will post...
But for today, I'm gonna post about my fun day trip along with my class which consist of 45 people to Jusco shopping mall....YAY!!!
Well, first of all, 45 people in a shopping mall is totally ridiculous...
But fortunately for me the one who organised this, only around 28 people came....(thank God)
So I have to manage it... But the first thing that happened this morning was my phone line got barred for overusing just to organise this....LOL!!!
Well I was there by 9.15 and so was Govinash....
We waited there for like half an hour for the rest to arrive.... P.S. It was before opening hours..... HAHA!!
By 10.30 most of them were gathered, but I was in a crisis as my phone battery went dead.....
So I went to use some phone charging machine by the toilet.... LOL!!!
At around 10.45 we all headed for the bowling alley/arcade to have some fun....
13 of us went ahead with bowling including me and the rest went to play at the arcade or pool....
We spent like about an hour or so there....
After that, some of us went to play at the cyber cafe while the rest continue playing at the arcade....
6 people including me played a 3v3 counter-strike game and my team won hands down 20-3.... haha!!! XD
By 12+ we headed for KFC to have our lunch..... This was the best part of the day...
We all gathered outside KFC like a pack of wolves.... We went on which having a standard meal for everyone since we were using our class fund....
We had the snack plate costing like about RM10 per person....
When we were in, I told 2 of my friends, Jeyain and Bryan, "Get a place for us first... I don't care if its full, kill, steal or watever get us all a place".
So they did, it was like magic.... A place full of people suddenly went empty...
Well the ordering was even better.... I was ordering of course, I told the cashier, "26 snack plates please...." she was smiling at me, "Drinks all Pepsi no mix" she was like thinking 'OMG!! stock habis la' in her head, "No ice for all pls".... That was when she totally blurred out.... You will laugh when you see her face so blur..
Then, of course we took photos throughout the day....
Later after lunch we started to part ways.... Some headed home, some to movies and as for my group....BOWLING again!!!
And you know wat was cooler??? Today me and my friend met this Nigerian guy with an afro named Bryan...
The HELL!!! he was freaking cool.... He was like the Michael Jackson of the 21st century...
Well in short we have a lot of fun..... I will remember this day forever....
3 cheers for 4 Basilian!!!!

A weird but wonderful day

Hi readers, ^^
Sry I haven't been bloggin lately ( I haven't even wrote about my media camp and my ninjutsu camp yet...haiz)
Well its bcoz I'm quite busy lately thanks to the final year examination and also being a little lazy...
Well anyways today was somewhat something I really wanted to blog about...
To start off, have you ever got felt so confident at something you are about to do and then have it all crushed the moment its being done??
Well I experienced that today. During my history exam, I have studied so much more than I usually do. What more is the teacher gave us tips on what is coming out. I did my objective easily but the structure was what crushed my confidence. Nothing I learnt came out. NOTHING!!! I felt so screwed that I finished my exams in 45 minutes out of the 2 hours allocated.
And another new experience for me today.
Have you ever pushed a vehicle in the middle of the road??
Today my bus(a school van to be precise) engine died half way up a slope. The engine couldn't start, so the bus driver reversed down the slope.
At the bottom, he could not reverse anymore. To make things worse it was raining heavily, but someone had to push the bus to the side of the road.
So then me and my other two friends came down the bus to push it.
Well pushing a vehicle under the heavy rain was kinda fun.
I never knew that the day I expected to be another ordinary day with the examinations as the difference could be so awesome.
Its been a while since I last played under the rain.
Well I love what life can bring to you.
To joy and fun, the tears and sadness, the anger and pain, anything at anytime,anywhere.
And I'll try to keep my bloggin a little active since the end year holidays are just around the corner.
Till next time, ciao >.<

Couple fighting

Do you think everything you watch in dramas or movies are fake?
Well not all of it are.
You know how you usually see couples fighting in drama or movies where they start shouting and the guy slaps the girl or somehting like that?
Well I actually saw one today.
As usual I followed my aunty who lives next door to school.
She drops me off at the bottom of the hill as usual.
But what was rather unusual today was at the exact spot where my aunty always drops me off, there was a couple arguing there.
They were shouting rather loud that you can actually hear them from the inside of the car.
Ok as a guy I admit that the girl was hot, with tattoos on her body and blonde hair(most likely dyed) and there is the guy who at that moment was fierce looking pointing his finger at the girl.
The girl pushed the boy's hand away and continued shouting out loudly.
The guy almost wanted to slap her(as how I actually remembered it)
By the way they were speaking in Chinese(Its a good thing I still understand Chinese a bit but not sure whether is Mandarin or Cantonese)
Then the guy walked off and the girl followed his back.
The guy then turned around a shouted (again in Chinese) stop following me and he walked off.
But the girl continued to follow his back from a longer distance this time.
To me it just doesn't seem right when two loved one can shout and fight like that in public.
This is basically our epic drama fight.
Well is their problem I should not mess with it.

A day full of activities and fun

Today I woke up earlier than usual.
I usually wake up around 7+ but today exceptionally I woke up at 6+.
Why you ask? Its bcoz I wanted to go school early to see my bro and sis in school as they have a scout and pandu puteri joint competition.
I arrived at around 7+. At soon as I entered the school, I saw Elysia, Azell and Julian at the canteen.
We then headed for the scout's room and picked up their stuffs.
In the end I was sitting alone waiting for my ninjas to come while watching them setting their things up.
And guess what, today I wanted to have a special training session as preparation for the night camp next week, but only 7 members turned up and one of them hardly even trained with us.
We trained different things than usual and ended up playin more ninja games than training...haha XD
After ninjutsu, Azriel and me headed to the scout's competition site to watch them cook and do the piorneering.
We wanted to try out some of the food but ended up being chased by the teacher.
So we headed to the band preparing to perform for the St.John's, my group of friends ^^
We helped them set their instruments up and ended up getting free food from the St.John(yay!!!)
After eating, we brought some food over for the performers and then we enjoy the performance.
I went home taking some nasi lemaks for my family.
Later the very same day in the evening, I went for the christmas campaign for the poor car wash.
I went there for two reasons:
  1. To meet with my friends
  2. To wash cars(obviously)
I had lots of fun washing cars together with my friends and getting wet.
In fact it rained while we were at it, for a short while though.
But this was a worthwhile activity, it was fun to get to play along with my friends while washing cars.
I hope that I can continue having fun like this a lot in the future.
Thats all for today, its getting late and I'm getting sleepy.
Good night readers -.-

An Extraordinary 'School Day'

Hi guyz!!!
Today was suppose to be a school day, the end of the 2 weeks holiday, but so it seemed.
It wasn't anywhere close to be considered a school day.
Today was quite out of the ordinary (extraordinay...haha :P)
The day started off with us having to be in school early which was around 6.30-7.00
It was a rainy day as well today(maybe because my mum prayed for rain last night haha ^^)
We all met up at the pavilion, wondering why the teacher has not called to meet up even when it was time.
Soon after, someone came and called us all, it was a message from teacher.
We quickly moved to the hall, backstage, to make preparations for the history drama, the one which we have been training for recently.
Today, the school was celebrating the Satu Malaysia Day, just a day after the actual day.
Jeyain and I then was asked by the teacher to obtain the bilik persediaan 1 key.
So we got it and came back, everyone involved was getting changed, so did I.
I was using my fathers shirt and tie as I was acting as a British soldier.
During the drama, we had a problem when the soundtrack was played too fast.
Luckily, we were able to improvise and make up for that problem, in the end the drama ended up well.
We got compliments from many teachers, we even got free breakfast from the headmistress after that....hehe
The best part was we did not even need to be involved with the assembly.
We also had fun joining the choir on stage to sing the Satu Malaysia song.(actually we messed it up when it was suppose to be in uniform order haha)
While everyone else was singing the school songs, we were backstage singing with our hearts content, having fun out of it.
We really enjoyed the start of this school day.
Later, we had our Physical Education class, or in short, Sports.
As usual we had difficulties with the warm-up session with the teacher, but later he allowed up to have our sports, in the rain.
It was so fun playing basketball and football in the rain.
I scored three basket today, amazingly, when I usually have problem making the shots.
I played like I never played basketball for years, I enjoyed it sooooo much, I always loved playing in the rain, it makes me feel alive.
In short today was a fun day, it did not even felt like a school day, it was like going out for an activity on the holidays except we are in uniform.
I had alots of fun, not to mention getting to see my friends again after 2 long weeks...but sadly they are not my bro and sis from church, but nonetheless, they are my brothers and I love them all ^^

Sorry readers, let me explain what happens when you get high on COKE AND CAKE....
As you can see the words above are not written properly, you might not even be able to understand anything.
NOTHING!!!
But let me show you what happens when u get high on COKE AND CAKE(lol I said that twice already now, still slighty high I guess)
P.S. I alreaady showed a picture show of me getting high on CAKE.
This sequence is if you are high on COKE.

You will end up drinking COKE,getting fat and going high trying to follow the models on the COKE posters.
Heck, you might even end up with diabetes.( I hope I don't lol >.<)
You will end up working for COCA-COLA as a bloody red COKE machine trying to sell of COKE and get everyone addicted.
You will even end up trying to take over PEPSI with the COKE brand so that everyone can go high along with you.
You will cause polar bears whether in the north or south pole to love COKE.
And the polar bears will make Santa Claus(a.k.a St.Nicholas) to go high on COKE and get his nose red making him unable to send all the Christmas present before the end of Christmas Eve.
You will end up getting the thought that DIET COKE, will help your DIET!!! and make you lose weight.
But in truth you are just drinking more COKE for god sake.
And what will happen to you in the end????
@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@
@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@
@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@@

You will end up dying and be buried with a COKE can as your tombstone.

Ok, ok, this is purely fictional okay.....
I am sorry to the Coca-Cola company if this was an insult or anything...
But this is to show how much I actually love COKE, dispise the fact people say its not good...
And CAKE as well.....
Haha, thx you reader for being such a great audience >.<
