why...?

When you found that your friend is not making a wise decision on certain matter, knowing him/her will/might be in torture or pain if he/she does so, yet you do not know what's the best way to tell or advice them... knowing you might ended up making the matter worse...just like the past experiences..?

Seeing your friends in tears and sorrow, yet don't even know HOW to help them,and all you could do is just lending them shoulder and ears, only know to tell them ''Be Strong..'' and silently comforting them...and adding just few little thoughts & advices..? What friend is this?!

And the personal fear...of their possible outcomes of their decisions...... and some which might affect them.... the rest of their lives..??!

What can i do??!!!

I'm quite frustrated with myself at times.

Back in Kch

Tadaima!!!~~ Im back home, safe and still alive LOL..

Wasn't feeling so well ever since i was back home from kl tho. Having headache for the past few days. but not a big deal.

Had Kolo Mee for my first dinner in kch after i came back, and Laksa for breakfast the next day. The YEARNS for kch's specialities... ;)

I have to get used to see all the GREENS here. Maybe the two months stays in KL had confused and blurred my sight. I was staring at the green leaves from the trees next door on the past Monday, reminding myself-- Im back in kch..Im back in kch.... (im back in kch..??) LOL

I suddenly woke up at around 1am this morning, awfully missing my friends for no reason... rushed to my laptop and online,signed in to msn. Didn't see them online tho, which should be expected. Went back to sleep again...

to Sungei Wang again

Went to Sungei Wang with Linda yesterday to buy a shoulder rest for my viola. After lunch at KFC,lower ground floor, we saw this:

I never heard of ThomasJack before so my first impression of these two singers was-- they are soo young! (18 and 19 wor according to Min..) it was as if seeing my friend Anthony(because he's a bit tanned and they are,too) and schoolmate dancing and singing on stage. Linda cannot really tahan them so we didn't stay for long.

and.. they OBVIOUSLY lip-synced ah!! sigh... i wonder why they even bothered to take the mic.. >.> (no offense)

Guess what, it's our first time to hop on the wrong train to get back to Hang Tuah to interchange station. LOL...

life at UCSI

Life at UCSI is pretty cool. We outstation students will go practice early in the morning(and i mean real early!since the rooms are mostly fully booked after 8/9am) have classes in the afternoon, and practice again at night(till 10++pm). I always joke to my friends in kch that we actually need to fight to use the practice room. It is partly true anyway LOL. It is just so nice to be able to meet new friends here who do the same things as you do(i.e.piano playing), share/discuss among ourselves the pieces that we play,hear them demonstrating their pieces,or just simply chat with them. They can be really interesting sometime,the way they talk or express themselves. I feel so blessed. hahaha...~~

I don't think I eat like usual here in kl. Well actually i dont even REMEMBER to eat nor do i really care about it.. it's like there are more important things to do than eat. sometimes friends will have to ask and pull me out to eat haha.. i even ate one sweet nia for whole day when i was soo busy last sat but not good of course.. can tahan during day time but feeling very exhausted at night. so ate some small slice of cakes served after the evangelical rally at church,at night .

Somemore not electricity in my dorm last night. so guess what I ate? LOL. a pack of keropok. the only food in my room that i could eat without microwave and hot water. Today i treated myself better. ate fried rice for brunch and a cup of instant cereal drink for dinner.

I have to remind myself not to torture my stomach LOL.

Some friends at kch know HOW MUCH i have wished (yearned..) to be able to play duet with someone,and that i always fail to find someone to do so with me. and so I've literally bought and brought a second-handed Mozart for Four hands,all the way from kch to kl, with much hope that I can find someone here at last to play that with me. and yes i did, and it was great! HOWEVER......!! I LOST MY BOOK,my PRECIOUS MOZART DUET book.. on past tuesday.........!!! T.T and I havent even played sonata in D major K 448 yet..!!! T.T NOOOoo....!!!

and my Chopin complete etudes as well......... !!! why????!!....... T.T

Photos time!~

Lindawati aka Linda, indonesian. She's even prettier in real life than what we see here and she is sooo kind XD~~

from right to left: Alex, who plays a lot of Chopin,very expressive and play many fast pieces,local; Everett, forgot where he's from but he's taking composition and contemporary piano(if im not wrong), local as well(i think). I only met and get to know him not long ago; Teddy-- yes that's his name. indonesian.

He only started to learn piano 3 years ago and so he still needs to learn a lot,but impressive already for only playing for 3 years. having the advantages of having long fingers and big hands, he plays Chopin and Rachmaninoff. He is 3 years younger than me btw @.@

LOL. This is Jessica. Indonesian as well. She can be very funny haha~ I will definitely have chances to hear her playing in the future ^-^

And there's a lot more ppl and pictures that i wanna show you guys in the near future so stay tune! LOL

I have changed my minor instrument to viola. but my instructor..she's a good violist but... sigh~

and recital is in 3 weeks time. practice practice!~

Im going to watch a real LIVE musical play tomorrow, the first time in my whole life. i cant wait!XD

I stumbled across this when i visited youtube homepage just now:



New moon is my least favourite in twilight series however this trailer makes me looking forward to the release of the movie. hmm...

UCSI

Yay i manage to online in my room for the first time!(actually it was me who dunno how to do the configuration LOL) the line is faster than what i have in kch. Everything's fine for me(except UCSI is located on a hill!LOL lots of walking and it's kind of steep.). Cafes(eg Secret Recipe,Old Town Kopitiam etc),barber's,Watson, Mc Donald(5 mins walk from residental hall),and Giant(5mins also) are just outside the campus.

Today is the first day of orientation and though it's like what is expected, it's tiring somehow. whole day until 6pm( but i know im fortunate as compared to friends at local u). Have done with the course selection and i just got to know that short sem means it's 7 WEEKS long and after that final exam LOL... oh ya btw i took violin as minor instrument XDXD Starting from 0. Im still excited! I actually wanna go practise tonight but it's already 740pm by the time i reach the residential hall after my dinner and yeah.. it closed at 8 pm so.. next day ler..

3 more days

3 more days to Tuesday. today is my last lesson with the kids. have been shopping for few days liao.. window shop alot but dint really buy much.. some clothes,shoes,etc. We can do more of that at KL.

My bro preferred Mac than HP although it's more expensive. He did however agreed that it's safer for me to bring HP notebook to school, the cheaper notebook, hoping to decrease the chances of being stolen...in such crimes-prone place as in KL. I even bought a backpack especially for my laptop ah.. which is safer than the hand-carry one..

I've almost done packing my stuffs, thanks to mom and dad who(out of caring and anxious) reminded me for sooo many time until i started to do so.. >.> yeah my books are the one contributing the most to the weight of my luggages.

SOMEhow I just started to play SDO.thought it's not very fun at first but then it became more and more addictive. lvl 11 nia so far(played for 5 days nia.. slow ler..) and yeah lvl 6 and above's songs are cool.. some are insane.. and LOTS of ppl love to play ''Thank you'',lvl 9, if only u get what i mean. The only one (soo far )that caused me game over when i played it (when it reach the middle part!). some ppl only level 5 nia already can play better then me >.> I guess Kim would know what im talking about.

BUT! will delete SDO on tues from my notebook. school more important ah..moreover to play SDO i have to disable some what what Security at Control panel because im using Vista.. When im bored i always can play facebook mah so no prob.

Very tired right now. That's it for today.

It rains!!! XD

Kch is rather hazy for the past few days but not as serious as compared to Sibu. The air is stuffy and hot, not comfortable to even walk outside for a few secs. We see red/orange sun in the morning and orange moon at night. Kch is going to face water shortage IF it doesnt rain. Government even lower the water pressure throughout kch so as to save some water. HOWEVER, it RAINS last night!! and it's a heavy one! XD But ho... the rains that poured down is..rather dirty. thnks to the haze.

See this pic 1. You cant see the cloud, nor BLUE sky. Can you guess about what time it was?
Then this one. pic2. This was taken around 6pm. while pic1 is taken around 12pm. Not much different right?

My mum always collects raindrops to wash the tile floor of my Little Black. This is the result of the overnight rain.

Recently

Just bought a HP laptop last friday. My very first! Haha. So far it's okay for me and I have no complain :D

My parents(instead of me)are counting days. Our whole family will come along with me to KL this 25 august, for settling down at UCSI hostel and pre-uni preparation. They will be attending Diploma ceremony at Sheraton hotel on 31 August as well(yeah!)

It's rather dry and hot lately. The haze makes it worse. No rains. Ppl around me got sick one by one(me too Lol). Everyone is very alerted by this contagious h1n1. My mum made me to take 3 ubat vitamin C daily when i caught flu and soar throat not long ago =.= (I hate pills) Accoring to the news today,12 death so far in M'sia. even little kids.. scary ah...

It's august, so it's Merdeka month. and yes KCH FEST again! but sadly no Parade this year. It's all about food. Government LITERALLY built a stage on the lake for opening ceremony and performances. I only took one pic using my E75:

this is only the very corner part of the whole fest.

My cousin Siu Gin asked me to watch Super Junior's Sorry Sorry dance version so yes i did. Here it is.

Well it's okay for me. bit cool, and cute for the ''sorry'' part. But i heard from Gin that this song is the top hit song in whole Asia and LOTS of ppl learn this dance steps. LOL. Watch this.



LOL!! the prisoners and the crowd are having fun!! quite cool also. They dance Michael Jackson's Thriller as well. You can search youtube for that.

7th of July!

First of all, it's my sis birthday!! Hahaha.. the girl who does not look aged though she's officially 17.

Simple fruit cake for her.

Secondly, Why does MJ funeral and memorial service on the same day as my sis bday?

Thirdly, Ketua Menteri Ling Kuan Eng from Johor announced in the news today that 7th of July is a public holiday for Johor starting next year.

What coincidences are those?

Now i realize Sis's bday is somehow cool. LOL.

And i got my ATCL Diploma Piano Recital result this afternoon!!! Get 83 over 100.Distinction yes yes!! XD though i know i can do better if i've worked even harder. but exam is just normal thing.we're looking forward here. I still have a VERY long way ahead of me. I DO plan to sit for even more advanced exam. Only if it does not crush with any of my uni schedule.

There will be a ceremony for all diplomas which is going to be held at Sheraton Hotel in KL on 31st August. Wearing robe and such. Should I go?

More updates?

Most of my friends are NOT in kuching right now. You all left me alone here!! T.T LOL it's fine. Im glad you all carrying on ur life and happily pursuing whatever studies u intended. My hp credit sooo very kesian,delibrately been spent by me for these 2 weeks,now left RM10++ (from Rm 100++) How i wish i can just fly over to Johor,Perak or KL to visit my friends to see how're they doing and to be there for them,even just for a while. I dint even get to send Yian Ping and Chiew Sia off!! T.T!!!

NO detailed post today on how's my life and whatever events . Im summarising:

on June 2009, I've:

- finished my ACTL Diploma exam on 23 June 2009. Still waiting for the result.
- helped in church's Children Holiday's activity, taught kids some aerobic dance,assisted them on their sketch
- join Young Adult's Sunday school for the first time. which mean, im out of Youth's, declaring(so unwillingly) that I am OLD liao T.T
- decided to continue to join youth fellowship instead of moving up to young adults' until go further study(dont confused)
- gotten unnecessary attention by some ppl somehow =.=
- gone to KADO 3 times within 24 hours with 3 different gangs of ppl @.@

starting July till now, I've:

- dropped Miss Annie's class, still continue Miss Chai's
- gone for every-3-months-medical checkup and have my every-3-months-bloodtest.first time actually taken the syringe from the laboratory assistant and examine my blood using my naked eyes. Warm, some bubbles,dark red liquid.Why does it feel soo weird?
- went to Badawan Fair. Of course it wasnt as impressive as Kuching Fest.
- went to UNIMAS for the first time

Uni life is cool,in my point of view, and pretty interesting. Im anxious.

My friends out there at uni, HAVE FUN and enjoy ur life there and DONT stress out.just do your part. and,You are not alone. You do know what i mean. (dont you?)

DIGI come on upgrade urself liao so that i can use video calls with my friends, or else it will show the foolishness of having a 3G phone but cant use 3G.

..........

The Original Carwash

Being a Kch girl, im very paiseh to say that i only know THIS particular restaurant and car-wash centre YESTERDAY.

This is the menu cover.

I was told that it started business since last year or earlier.This is what the whole building called: THE ORIGINAL CARWASH.RESTAURANT. Co-operated by Ting Pek Kim(carwash) and The Junk/BlaBlaBla's boss(restaurant). Basically most ppl come here to have car wash, and they can see the whole washing part behind a glass wall,in a restaurant.Come and have meal or just drinks. NO i DONT WANT TO WASTE THIS KIND OF MONEY TO GET MY CAR WASHED but i was only told by my aunt to follow her car and then I just reached there and I HAVE NO IDEA i was getting my car washed..

My aunt and sis. Reading mag while waiting for our orders.I know THAT's Jolly Shandy but if you take the can away, what WOULD you think she will be drinking???


The menu says FRIED CHICKEN WINGS and guaranteed nice food. so erm..you call that chicken wings?they're seriously small and thin. are they using small birds or small premature chick?? Animal abuse.Geli.Or it's just my imagination? Maybe they use small kampung chicken??but I still passed.others said it's nice.

Spring roll. Never expect this but it does look colorful and pretty in REALITY. Crab meat,Carrot and Egg.

I think this is the cheapest main course in the menu if not mistaken. Roasted Chicken.RM10.

Fried Rice. i think that's beef on the right and it's definitely real fried chicken wing behind the rice. Lamb Chop.

Chicken Chop.

Nasi Lemak.


I jumped when these 2 things suddenly DI DI DI DI DI (beeps) like for 3 times? and VIBRATES. because im not expecting THAT.

Yes that's Glass. NOT the door obviously. There're pipes and smooth stones outside.
Outside.

All hp pics and no editting so sorry for the quality.

NOtice the food is served on big plate?That's typical of The Junk's. The restaurant is,of course, full of good junks,like the old sewing machine and cupboard and even some old dental chair(DENTAL CHAIRss. i dont understand..why?). The price of the food? also like The Junk lo but slightly cheaper nia. most food is in the range of Rm10 - 20+. The food is nice. Indoor's atmosphere is good(We were sitting outside but we went in to pay so..) WiFi provided. If only the food here(and the drinks) arent that expensive, this restaurant would be a good place to hang out(at Rubber Road). RM15 per car wash+vacuum and 3free drinks.

Co-operated by these 2 tauke, even only having few customers, you think this Original Car Wash and Restaurant will kam meng(close door)??

It's Tuesday

I just realised my rm 10 movie ticket voucher is about to expire! Last time(March 09) went to idp education fair with Gin and Tay and got the free movie ticket because we're among the first 100ppl. just called Gin and made plan(she also hasn't used hers because she's waiting for me to go with her ^^'') and we've decided to go watch movie this Thursday night/afternoon. See how. Wanna join us? :D

N-gage has so many nice games with amazing graphic BUT we have to purchase to play the full games or else we only get to play the trial, with minimum gaming time/level( can only play level 1 nia on Prince of Persia!! T.T) and that's why i've downloaded few FREE mobile games NOT under N-gage to my phone,like Tom Raider Underworld.

Today,for the FIRST TIME in my life(again),during my piano class, Chopin's Scherzo in B flat minor (and it's YUNDI LI's version) suddenly stuck in my head when im in the middle of playing Brahms' Intermezzo to Miss Annie!! My mind sings the Scherzo while my finger playing Intermezzo!! I can only hear Scherzo in my head,and my ears, when my fingers unmistakenly playing Brahms piece!! AHHHHHhhhh....!!!! siao!! how is that possible???!! got 2 mind meh?? For that instant as if my mind is not my own,my fingers are still moving(because my eyes are still reading the score!) but that dint last long. I immediately forced myself snapped out of it with some effort and still going on with Brahms. I was surprised Miss Annie dint realise anything.

I dont want that to happen ever again. NOT in my June exam.

Recently there's a Indian piano dealer shipped in 80++ recon/second-handed piano and having sales at Boulevard(FYI, recon means reconditioned,that is, repairing the old piano,changed the rotten parts, and makes it looks brand new) Baby grand piano at only around RM15000!!(whole new one can cost about RM50,000 or more okay) upright piano can be so cheap like about RM3000+ nia(new one is around RM 10,000++.already can be considered as investment liao.) Makes ppl wonder about the quality the tone and the touch of the piano. So pls ppl out there, dont simply buy!!!

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

Congrats to my cousin Gin for passing her driving test this morning!!~~

Thank Lord because of his grace that my bro got his working Visa at US!!~~ and he can plan to come back to kch for hols!! yeah~~

what's going on?

within these 7days, i forgot to take my car key out from the ignition before i locked the car manually,for 3 times O.o. I never, im telling you,I never do that until just recently. Had to trouble my dad to send me the spare key. yesterday is my third, at my piano teacher's house. Dad came bringing along another spare key and GAVE it to me(at last). He never wanted to but, well, we both are expecting the ''next time'' so..

I think im very tired recently too.I consciously DONT think im tired, and I never overslept for my piano class.BUT!! to cry out loud, last Fri and today. class starts at 9am.I woke up at 915 or 930am!. !!. T.T

and i eat alot. lot more than necessary this week. hungrier than usual.

Got it today as late bday present.From my aunt.

Jase's Tea Room

Went to Jase's Tea Room at Premier 101 for the first time last night, with Wern Thing, Jennifer and Sze Min. I do think Make Yourself at Home sign at the door will be a great idea because the room is soo cozy and home-like.The dim lights may have also added the effect. Of course, the price of the drinks are like those at bing,and they have more varieties.

Wern Thing,Me, Sze Min and Jennifer

Jennifer with her Green Mocha (which is in fact peppermint ice-cream added in mocha)

Wern Thing's Chocoa Munchy ( which is ice-blended chocolate with cream and chocoacrunch topping)

Sze Min's Secret Garden (it's fruit tea.mixed berries?)

And my Macadamia Bourbon(Tea, of course)

We chatted alot. It had been so long since i last met Jen!I dont think we were actually done talking when we had to leave. XD

I think i saw Claire , the ex-president from St Jo, with her friends. I wonder if she saw me and still remembered me. She's nowhere to be seen when i turned around to greet. T.T

I am curious. Why of all places, has the washroom to be so dimly lighted??? The soo dimmed light from the egg-shaped lamp reflected the red colour(or was it orange?) of the wall and all you can see of the toilet is.. pink? cant even see whether the toilet is clean or not to use.

And they sell Sio Bi. in the bracket next to it stated open air market.6pcs for RM4.80 . LOL

Anyhow, I still enjoyed the night at Jase's. with my friends XD XD

Trip to Samatan

Fishing boat? They got onto a fishing boat?? ( the only boat left that day.no choice.)

"Honey I'll be waiting for you!!~~" seeing their beloved away.. fishing.

with Wan Yi, who flew all the way from Sg for hols(3 days) and manage to join us

Watch your steps! Incidents happened everywhere. Some small sharp things stuck in their foot.One followed another. My dad and I kenak too. Blame the shells or rubbish like glass?

Soo hard to take this pic you know. Water level around waist. and the sudden waves. Putting lots of effort to keep my cam dry.btw, Wan Yi is STANDING while taking the shot.

The only Master Bedroom in the Bungalow.

Sis,Yvette and Yeslyn.

Er... yes yes i understand, Aaron.. *run away*
