Expect the Unexpected / Sometimes...

Sometimes things in life just do not go the way you want...
But you still have to live on...
Sometimes what you want does not seem to happen...
But what can you do about it....
Sometimes what you wish for do not come true...
But you still keep hoping it will...
Sometimes you expect something to happen...
But it may not happen...
Sometimes you say you would do something...
But you might not...
Sometimes happiness will fade away just like that...
But it can come back anytime...
Sometimes sadness fills your heart...
But joy comes just to take it away...
Sometimes anger conquers over you...
But there is a feeling that calms it down...
Sometimes darkness takes over...
But there is light to shine upon it...
Sometimes kindness is repaid by ungratefulness....
But you are still happy you did it...
Sometimes you do not have to do things...
But you still do it...
Sometimes you make the wrong decisions...
But sometimes you make the right ones....
Sometimes you got to relax...
But sometimes you have to work hard...
All the things in life have its possibilities...
We do not always get what we expect to happen...
But as long as we give our best in what we do...
This sometimes are always worth it...

I wonder....

Its been so long since I last blogged...
Have been kinda busy and lazy of late....
How are you all readers???
I hope you are doing okay...
It seems like I'm starting to have more followers (10 so far to be precise)
Well its a good start, who knows, it might be an international blog some day...
Well, have been wondering about a lot of stuff lately....
Both sad and happy stuff.... Don't worry I'm keeping hold of myself...
And I've been caught up between choosing a saint name....
Should I choose Angelo or Virgil...
I wonder.... Hmmm....
Well, God will help me with all that wondering....
But for now I'll stop here and hope you all take care of yourself.... Bye bye XD

A whole week of Chinese New Year fun

Happy Chinese New Year readers..
I'm sorry for not blogging so much lately...
Have been busy..
Well its already a week away from the Chinese New Year holiday week but I'm gonna blog about what I did anyways...
We had one whole week of holidays for Chinese New Year..
I was invited to my friends house for almost every single day...
So this is what I did (It's long as usual)

The first house on Monday (Alex's house)
         It was a Monday morning, I woke up early and had my breakfast. I got prepared to go to Alex's house and left early because my mother is sending my brother to college on the way. It has been raining since three days ago and it was still raining that morning. My mum dropped my off at the bus stop near the Domino's Pizza. I took my X-box 360 along. Yi Min and Bryan Han was already waiting there for me to arrive. Alex did not want us to go to his house too early. It was around 9+ in the morning. So the three of us went to a Chinese shop to 'Yam Cha' first. We sit there for a while then decided to go over to the mamak stall to have breakfast.(They did) We sat there for some time until after 10. We were supposed to buy some pizzas from Domino before going to Alex's house. But Domino only opens at 11am so we decided to walk to Alex's house first. We arrived there after a 15 minute walk. Alex has two dogs, Casper and Phoebe(I think thats how its spelled). Casper was fierce but Phoebe was adorable >.< . Okay so we went to Alex's room and chit chat for a while. Then we decided to use the X-box I brought just to realise, I have forgotten to bring the most important thing... THE BOOT DISC!!! After all the commotion I decided to go to Terminal 1 to buy a new one.(Becuase my mum did not want to bring it for me -.- ) I went there along with Yi Min. It was a half an hour walk there from Alex's house. We could not get the boot disc because there we no more stocks. We bought some snacks, orange juice and cranberry juice as Alex requested before taking a taxi to get back to Domino. We waited for a while to receive our order. Then... We walked back to Alex's house with 7 pizzas all placed in one plastic bag!!! I had to hold it with both my hands wide apart. I looked like a fool walking on the road with it. Every car we passed by, the driver stared at me. A lorry driver that passed by even said
" Wah, that's a lot of pizzas. " When we got back we had our lunch. We played Alex's PS3 instead. Then the guests(all our friends) came one by one as time went by. After some time Jason Too came and we started gambling (Chinese tradition). While gambling I was having a glass of red wine which was very dry and kinda strong. It was 13.5% alcohol. I got a headache after that. I had fun playing Call of Duty: Black Ops with Vijay, Adrian, Jason Too and Lai. It was an awesome game we played that day. We played for so long.
Then, we played this game called Little Big Planet 2. That game was so fun. We laughed so much playing that game. And so the day went by. We had pizza again for dinner (Pizza Hut this time) and I stayed there till around 10.30 pm . Harish, Jason Too, Philip and Jerome stayed over at his place. It was a fun day.

The second house on Tuesday (Philip's house)
      I went to Philip's house at around 5pm . I was the first one there (Not what Philip expected). We were having a potluck dinner that day. I brought egg sandwiches . And yet another house with a dog. The name was Fifi. The moment I entered his house, his dog was stalking me everywhere I go.(P.S. I am afraid of dogs a little) At first I was a bit scared of it, later I was playing and talking with it... Hehe XD . Philip was tired when I got there because he and the rest slept late last night at Alex's place. Since I was there early, he asked whether I wanted to use his computer but I decided to watch television. Black Butler at 5.30pm and Oh! My School (A Korean variety programme) at 6. While I was watching tv, Lim came with a carton of Coca-Cola. I continued watching tv with him while having a chat. Then Philip gave us a packet of Double Decker to share. His dog was jumping on us and barking trying to get it from us. To avoid that we hid the pack behind of us and ate like that... Haha XD . At around 7+ , some of the others started to come. By 8 o'clock almost everyone had arrived. We were gather outside around the table to mix the 'Yee Sang' first as a Chinese tradition for good luck. We had fun doing it because we were all teenagers and it got messy... Haha XD . After that we had our dinner with all the delicious food brought by everyone set on the table. With some music on using Daryl's laptop (I think it was his laptop) with Harish's stereos, we chit chat and enjoyed our meal. After eating, I challenged some of them around me to a competition. It was one of my favourite which was who can put their hand in the ice box for the longest time. I really enjoyed doing that whenever there is an ice box around. A few people accepted my challenge and the one's that lasted the longest of course is me and Lai. During the competition, my hand was starting to freeze but I did not give up, so I took my first ever can of beer that night to warm me up. Alex said "You always ask me not to drink so much but you opened the first can of beer?" Haha.... He was right about that. We lasted for around 4 minutes and then when we decided to take our hands out at the same time, Lai tricked me and I lost. I gave him RM1 (which Loi gave to me earlier) . After all that, it was time to gamble inside the house. We gambled for around an hour. We had ice-creams with whipped cream and chocolate too. Alex did his with beer. Before the real fun really began, my dad called. He said he was around and is going to pick me up. It was merely 10.30pm and I was the first to go back. What a waste >.<

The third house on Thursday, First day of Chinese New Year (Lim's house)
        I left my home at 7pm. Again I brought my X-box 360 because Sachin and Vijaya asked me to. When I arrived, Sachin, Vijaya and Joeyee was already there. I placed my X-box on the floor beside the living room table. I had a chat with Vijaya and Sachin outside while waiting for the rest to arrive. When Gerard, See and Kew arrived, we went into the room to fix the X-box on the television. We play Naruto first and then Fifa 2011. While we were playin Lai came. After that I left Sachin, Vijaya and Lim's little brother to play with the Xbox while I headed to Lim's room. They were already started to gamble when I entered. I joined in as usual XD . We were gambling while the girls were using his computer. After some time I started feeling hungry (never expected there to be no food to eat. Lucky I ate a little before coming) , so I asked for a drink. After gambling for some time, Vijaya father came and he went home. We decided to stop for a while. Sachin had already went back while we were gambling. Not long after, we started gambling again. Because we were losing to the dealer (See Soon Yang), we used a different decks of card (Philip's cards) and gamble at a different place (the dining room). We said it was to change the luck (feng shui.... hehe XD) . And guess what?? It really helped and See who won RM150 earlier lost RM160. It was gonna be 12 midnight. Slowly we started heading home. I was the last to go back that night. It was another fun night chatting while gambling. I was invited to Joeyee's house the next day (It can be consider making a new friend that night) .

The fourth house on Friday, Second day of Chinese New Year (Joeyee's house)
       It is the second day of Chinese New Year so I had to go to my mother's side of the family for gathering as usual. I ate like crazy for lunch XP because they were all so tasty. I got a lot of 'ang pow' too XD . After that my dad decided to go to KL where my father's side of the family is gathered at my cousin Danny's house.
I slept the whole way. We were lost finding his house. Soon after we found it. I did not wanted to go there at first. But I had fun there meeting up with my relatives. We had steamboat. I was using my cousin's computer after that. At around 6pm we headed back home to Seremban to have our dinner at my grandpa's house. After dinner, I left for Joeyee's house at 8pm. Boy was the house big. I was shocked when she said that I could have gone in from the other gate on the side. I was like "OMG!!! Got another gate on the side??" . It was a double level house. Some of there who where there were watching tv downstairs. As usual we had a chat while watching tv. Not so long after the guests started to arrive. We began gambling . Joeyee's dad sponsored money to her for banking (RM50 OMG!!! XD). Instead of playing 21 (blackjack) today we played a game called 'Ngau' . Lai explained to me how this game worked. Joevin (Joeyee's brother) did some dealing too. After a while we went to a table in the kitchen and played against Joeyee's father. His father was pro. He won us like crazy with doubles. It was the first time in the week I started losing money a little. After everyone lose a quite a sum of money, we stopped and moved on to play blackjack at a different spot. That small group did not lasted long. Joeyee asked us to combine with the girls in a room with a table there. Sean was the dealer this time. We played very long there. Sean lost a lot of money and finally Joeyee took over and became the dealer. But thanks to Sean losing so much I got back my 'modal' that I lost earlier. Then, Joeyee's mum came by. She took over for just one turn and she was so good at it. She could tell whether we burst or not. Both of her parents were very good at gambling. Half way while gambling her mum came with a basket full of 'ang pow' and gave out. We laughed and played like crazy that night. We had lots of fun. We gambled until past midnight and did not realise the time. My dad called and said he was outside. Everyone's parents we waiting and we rushed out. There were still some of them there. I made quite a number of friends that night.

So that is what I did throughout the week.
I had lots of fun and made some new friends.
Me and my friends don't usually gamble but only do it for Chinese New Year.
'Its once a year' we keep saying.
Win or lose we had lots of fun and laughs.
I started to enjoy beer a little but I'm not addicted to it .... Haha XD
Chinese New Year is fun.
I got a hell lot of 'ang pow' .
With the 'ang pow' money and the money I won while gambling I made RM200 that week.
I wish we can always have fun like this every year and in other occasions too.

Lim's 17th Birthday

It is the 15th of January....
Its just one day before Lim's actual birthday...
He has invited some of us, his friends over to his house to celebrate his birthday....
I left my home together with Alex as soon as he came by....
We got there at around 5 o'clock ....
The house was kinda big....
It was a big single-story house....
We entered with the ingredients to make cocktails....
As soon as we enter, we headed for the kitchen to put the stuff into the fridge....
Philip had arrived there earlier than us...
As usual, I like to tour around the house of people when I go there for the first time...
We entered Lim's room (when he said not to) and put our bags in there....
After successfully putting the things into the fridge when there was no space in it, we decided to try out some cocktails.....
Alex made a 'Flaming Cow' for us to try....
While that was being done, Philip and me were having shots of whiskey, vodka, and whatever was there...
Only two shots of the Flaming Cow was made....
It was the first time I took anything stronger than red wine....
The same goes to Philip and Lim....
Alex is used to it so what can I say... He is the DON!!!
And so we tried the Flaming Cow....
Alex showed me an example of how to take it first and he showed an extremely crazy reaction....
It was freaking hot that he jumped around...
Then it was my turn to try....
I blew the flames off the top of the layer of whiskey...
The moment I tried to take it, I burn my lips as it was seriously hot...
It was like drinking water as soon as it boil...
But without much hesitation I took the whole thing in a shot and boy was it nice...
The experience was awesome...
You can feel the burn down your throat all the way to the stomach and then the milk cools it off....
Next, Alex decided to make this cocktail that uses orange...
I've forgotten what it was called....
This is a picture of it....







After making it, he gave a glass to Lim and one for himself...
Philip and me shared one by splitting it into our shot glasses....
Well, I think we took too much of alcohol and chocolate so early on the day....
Philip, Alex and me somehow had a sugar rush I think.... Haha XD
While Lim was slowly enjoying his 'orange cocktail' , we entered his room to choose some songs from his laptop for the party....
At around 6.30, Lim decided to take a shower to prepare for the party....
There was this drawer of his in the cupboard that he does not want us to open so he locked it....
I was somehow curious what was in it, but I could not open it...
All of a sudden the clothes in his cupboard caught my attention....
I browse through his cupboard and found two nice clothings...
One was his piano clothes and the other was a traditional chinese clothes for man...
I showed it to Philip and Alex and they decided to put it on for the party >.<
Hehe....





When Lim came back he was in a shock to see them wearing his clothes....





Then we decided to use some hair gel to spike up our hair....
We entered Lim's father room and used the gel there....
Not long after the guest started to arrive.....
We said the theme of clothing was to wear Lim's clothes....
And all the guys came one by one to try out his clothes.... LOL!!!
His shirt all got dirty thanks to us XD....
By 8 o'clock, everyone had arrived and we went out to barbeque our dinner....
Lim's dad had already prepared the barbeque pit while we were all having a chat inside....
There was chicken, hotdog, corn, otak-otak, crab....
But there was one problem...
The pit they have does not use the wire type....
It was using the iron bars so it was kinda big for us to barbeque it properly...
So we decided to use a frying pan... haha....
First time ever have you heard people barbeque with a frying pan....




Everyone was outside chit chatting and eating....
I was doing the barbeque and I sweat like hell because of the heat....
Soon after, we went in....
It showed 9.30 on the clock and it was time to blow Lim's birthday cake....
We had fun even just to sing a birthday song....
We even sang it in Malay because we do not know how to sing it in chinese of tamil....
Haha.... Then we asked Lim to do a certain birthday tradition which he does not know about....
Feeding the cherry to the people who are dear to him....
He gave one to his dad, his brother, Leng May (his girlfriend XD) and Alex....
After that, we ate some cake and we continue with our chit chat all around the house...
Some in his room, some at the living room.....
Loi was already high that time....
He was acting strange because earlier he had drank too much.....
It was kinda scary to see someone like that.... I'm not gonna say much about it but seriously it was not fun to see someone like that.... He even cried later on....
Leng May and Wendy was in the room at one time....
They were watching a video and some of us came in to watch....
It seemed like a horror at first but it was a freaking hilarious video.... You have got to watch it....
It's called the Horribly Slow Murderer with the Extremely Inefficient Weapon by Richard Gale...
This is the link http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=9VDvgL58h_Y
Somewhere around 11+ ,  some of us were gathered at the dining table to have a private talk....
It was Alex, Jason Too, Philip, Daryl, Harish and me....
When it was almost around 12, we opened the red wine that Lim's dad gave us to chill earlier...
It was strong and nice wine...\
Alex mixed it using his bartending knowledge and it was delicious...
I do not want to mention the things he mix it with to keep his secret XD....
While drinking my dad came and I had no choice but to down my red wine... (Haiz... cannot enjoy it >.<)
Well we had lots of fun....
I did not take much photos though but there were a few....
One of which were Harish and Philip camwhoring....






I really enjoyed myself that day....
Lim is gonna invite us over again for Chinese New Year and I'm really looking forward to it...

Precious memories and belongings / Have faith in God

Have you ever gone through something so memorable that you never want to forget about it....
Having precious stuffs like what you kept from that precious time, photos and all....
Or like in a wedding, a wedding ring....
Or something to remind you of your first kiss....
Well I know I do....
It was that yellow file, not just any ordinary file but the file which I got during my study day and confirmation camp....
But what made that file so precious???
Well, it was what I left inside of it... Not the file....
Inside my file was all the stuffs I kept from my confirmation camp....
But the most precious ones were the affirmation notes left by my dear friends and that small yellow book which was signed by them as well....
But why am I talking about this all of a sudden???
Well, it is because something happened to me yesterday and it wasn't something to be happy about....

Like any ordinary school day, I would be packing my bag around the night after relaxing after school and doing what needs to be done, like around 9pm....
So I did....
I wanted to play around with my sword model of Cloud from the movie Final Fantasy Advent Children which I got for Christmas that night...
While I was packing my bag, I took out my school file to clear it of papers and things I don't need inside of it..
And so I took out all the certificates I got from school in there...
I needed to use it for my Moral folio (which I'm still working on) so I decided to keep it on the cabinet along with my school books...
But I didn't want it to get bent so I looked for a file to keep it in....
Then I saw a pink file.... What was that you ask???
Well it is my file from the media camp....
I don't know why but the moment I saw that file the first thing that came into my mind was....
"Where is my confirmation camp file?? "
So I went around my house to search for it....
I recalled leaving it on my computer desk but after my dad spring cleaned the house for Christmas, everything has moved around....
I had already realised that I lost my song list but now I just realised that I am unable to find my confirmation camp file....
That file had lots of memories and was precious to me as I have explained....
So I went all around the house, high and low....
I asked my brothers and my mother where it was... But still I could not find it....
Then my mum asked me "What is that so precious you looking for?? "
It snapped to me.... If it was so precious, why didn't I take good care of it??  I could have kept it somewhere I can find easily....
I was devastated...
I took sat on a chair with half a bottle of Sprite all alone in despair....
I thought I had lost it....
I feared that it was thrown along with the other stuffs my mother thrown away while my dad spring cleaned the house....
I laid down on the floor of my computer room...
My brother saw me and ask "Are you crying? " .... I said "No" ...
My dad saw me and said "If you tired go to sleep, you look so tired" ....
I wasn't tired but still I went up to go to sleep....
After washing up and everything, I turned off the lights and laid down on my bed thinking....
At first I was angry that my dad spring cleaned the house and made me lost quite a number of stuff....
But then I realised that it really was my fault....
As I was lying on my bed, I said a prayer....
I thanked God with a sincere heart for everything and I prayed....
While I was praying tears shed down my eyes just thinking how blest I really am with everything and of thought of losing my file which I realised was very very precious to me...
I said my prayer something like this....
"   I thank you God for another day of my life...
                                   for my caring father...
                                   for my loving mother....
                                   for my brothers...
                                   for my friends whom I love so much...
                                   for all that you have given me....
   I am glad that you give me everything....
   You always search for me and I love you God....
    But please I ask you, to help me find my file...
   Please don't let it be lost.... It's very precious to me....          "
( The actual prayer I said was a bit longer than this but I can't remember it so well because I was crying very sadly that time)

I had full of faith that God will hear me...
Its almost like I shouted out to God with my heart...
And all of a sudden my stairs light when on as soon as I was about to finish my prayer...
My brother came up and he said to me... " I found your file already.It was on the black cupboard. I suddenly remember it. Maybe your song list is in there also. "
When I heard that I was so happy, but I was closing my eyes to hide the fact from my brother that I was crying...
And I said "Just put it on my desk "
He did so and went down...
I was so happy...
I woke up, went to wash my face and opened that file to look at all the things inside...

And I realised....
God was listening to my prayer....
I think he heard me calling out to him...
But in his mysterious way, he did not let me find it, but instead he helped my brother to remember where the file was kept....
So I believe that if you pray, truly with a very sincere heart, God will answer your prayer...
Besides that, I learnt on that night that you should take very good care of things which are very precious to you...
Yes, friendship is not measured by material stuff, but I am a person who likes to keep memories of all the good times.....
So I keep very dearly what I have shared and experience with my beloved friends....
So all my dear readers out there...
If so you have anything very precious to you, I ask of you to take very good care of it....
And remember, something precious can also mean friendship and love....
Till next time readers.....
Don't forget.... >.<

                                  

First Day of school

Hello readers.....
Ahhh... Its already been 6 weeks since school ended....
Wow!!! Thats fast don't you think??
Anyways what can I say, its sometimes just so fun to go to school....
Irritating teachers...
Learn new stuffs...
Meeting friends...
Playing around...
Joking around....
Funny teachers...
Ahh.... Nothing could be better than all these...
But then again we have the...
Irritating teachers...
The strict teachers...
The torture of homework...
The punishments....
The RULEZ!!!
Well, thats school life.... But seriously, nothing beats school life...
Its already my senior year.... Wow!!!
I'm form 5 now and man how could it get any worse than going to school....
We have our SPM coming up...
Then its gonna be our last year of school... Imagine not being to see your friends so often....
The torture of always hearing... "You must get straight A's ah" and stuff like that....
Well all this beats going to work and paying taxes and all...
I seriously feel its all worth it...
School life is the best to be precise...
You won't get to see your friends or relax, joke around, make noise and stuff like that once you start working...
I think I went totally off topic...
Well as usual the first day comes with the busy road of students going to school...
Meeting our friends after such a long break....
Its all good here on my side because I really enjoy seeing my friends in school....
Then we had our loooooonnnnnngggggg first day of school speech by the principal as usual....
The results of the PMR for the year 2010 was announced and it was better than my badge by 5% (Man thats crazy)
Then of course we had to get down with all the class management stuffs with the class teacher after that as usual....
Electing the monitor , the assistant, the secretary and all....
Being notified about the PIBG and school payments and stuff....
But then again, something different happened for my class today...
We got the scolding for spending the class fund at Jusco... Haha XD
The teacher said it was corruption at a lower level.... Well it is our fault for not informing her about it...
Then we got our timetable....
Got a new chemistry teacher for this year... She is a nice teacher... Serious, weird way of talking and the 'senang kena bully type of teacher' but friendly in a way....
Then we had to write a "Vision for the Year 2011" for the Physics teacher....
And as usual the Physics teacher always talk in his weird way of "Stop vibrating your voice box" Instead of "Class keep quiet" ....
Basically thats what happened today.... Its the same old same old....
But its fun to go to school after such a long break... But of course I was hoping it would had lasted longer... Haha XD....
Anyways I hope that you all enjoy going to school, especially my senior friends who are currently in form 5 too....
Let's all make the best out of our school life so we can always remember the great times we had in our school life during our days of old....
Take care... Till next time.... (Can't wait to finish my post on my Cameron trip during the weekend XD )

A New Year

Happy New Year my dear readers...
It is truly amazing that it has already been a whole year...
Well 2010 was indeed a great and memorable year...
I had my bad times and I had my good times...
All my friends, family, the people around me....They made it a year I would actually to say never forget..
Its truly amazing how you will look back on everything that has happened the whole year through when it comes to at end but not while its happening...
When I reflect back, I realised I have done many things and many things have happened to me...
Like confessing what you feel to others....
Telling friends big secrets...
Screwing things up..
Fighting...
Getting punished...
Getting closer with friends...
Finding a second "family"....
Falling in love and getting heartbreaks...
Falling into sadness and rising again to soar the skies....
I've seen joy, I've seen sadness...
I've seen love, I've seen hatred...
I've seen light, I've seen darkness...
I've seen people hugging, I've seen people fighting....
But in the end it will all be just memories...
Memories that we will cherish and not let go of....
All of it whether it be bad or good is well remembered in our hearts....
For all I know, there is a feeling for the past in everyone's heart that can never fade...
We remember the good times to put that smile on our face when we are feeling troubled...
And we remember the bad times to bring out that laughter of how stupid it actually was...
We only realise things when it has become the past...
So why don't we just stop.... Yes, stop just for that very brief moment in time and sit.... Just relax and reflect on all we have done in the year 2010 and make our NEW YEAR RESOLUTION!!!!
To be someone better...
To change all that is bad to good...
All that is dark to light...
All that is sad to joy....
All that is hate to love...
And all that is bitter to sweet old memories that we will once again remember in our days of old....
I will keep the year 2010 in my heart forever and use it to start off this year 2011 to the best I can...
I will overcome my weakness and shine as bright as the sun....
Let us all do so to make this world a brighter and better place to live in....
Again, Happy New Year everyone and may the blessings of the heaven be showered upon us all as we begin this year..... 2-0-1-1 .....
