I brought my laptop to Uni today. When I was enjoying my mochacino from the cafe that I always go to, I got an idea: Why not blogging now??!!

*the inspiration is coming, coming, CominG!!!!*
@_@

Im now sitting at the bench in the Quad--a place where students in my uni chill and catch up with their friends while having food on the other hand.

A while ago, this 2 guys came and sit beside me; two nerd looking (=looked super smart type la) were talking in super strong Malaysian accents. I overheard the conversation between them. talking about how they treat their parents back at home; and, was saying their parents always tell them to study hard since they werent given such a great opportunity last time when they are younger. Later, they looked like to be one listener concentrating to his friend spilling his 'problems' la.. Oh well, my main point wasnt them la!

They make me thought of what me and my friends used to do back in college time!! We always spend time in our cafeteria! And there is the place we hang out, doing nothing or eat something! =P But now..it wasnt so anymore! I am basically spending my time on my own in this Quad, just like now; since my mates are all still stay at home; oh well, what can you expect when most of your lectures are at 8am in the morning???!! This sem timetable is bery CACAT la...

If not because of my 'job' as a student, I wouldnt have come! And, not only that, I forgot to bring extra sheet of papers with me today! And it suxx, trying to squeeze all the notes given onto tiny papers that you found in your bag! probably are those receipts that I got from the cafe when I buy my coffee!! ='(

This sem is getting busier now...I just had a test yesterday; which I am sort of happy and satisfied about it; And 3 assgmts gonna due this next friday and next next monday. I hope that I am able to catch up with all the lecture recordings that I have missed due to these tests previously and start my assgmts as early as possible. Dont wanna get average marks again!! Need to score well so that I am afford to loss marks in the final exam if I dunno how to do!!!

Oh well, Uni life, depends on you la...what to think....
Fun with friends ≠ Tension with assgmts ≠ Struggling with money&time mgmt

its 3am in NZ...

2011-05-01T03:30:00.000+08:00

i got a bad habit recently.
不知何时学会了失眠
最近都很迟才睡
害到隔天起不来。

I tried not too think so much and go to bed.
But I couldnt.
Perhaps I should cut down on coffee.
I am so tired but I couldnt sleep.
So hard to get up early in the morning.

Uni workload quite heavy recently...
Too many things to study and revise.
Lecture recordings are my 'entertainment' every weekends.

Thus this filled up my eyebags even more.
looked like a panda now.=(

Break Up vs V-day

2011-02-14T18:09:00.005+08:00

The clock shows 4.30pm. The white lady in front yell at me and the rest, stop writing and put ur pens down. Time to hand in the papers. Yupp, I just finished my exam. A subject called Japanese 130G.
I break up with it today...yes, on V-day. No more Japanese lectures, no more tutorials, no more short tests, no more dictations, no more memorising.... Actually I miss those day(s) when I was so excited to memorise the vocabulary. And, all i need to do is just keep relating it to those languages that I am actually familiar with! =P

Today, after the exam, i was waiting for the bus home. For once in my life time, I put up my head and start staring at the sky. It is so so BLUE for the first time! I have never feel like this before! Feeling so in love with it.

Bye-bye 2010

After so so long saying wanna get a haircut.
Finally after work today, I went to the saloon on K Road to "chop" some inches off...
Was thinking to cut it shorter but the Korean aunty said "no no, keep ur hair...; I will cut your front hair shorter a bit" (in strong korean accent)
Tadaaa~ looked fresher and more tidy i guess...^^

Just that, I didn't have fringe for nearly 10 years d...So not used to it...
Keep touching it. Anyway, love it so much!
After haircut, mood also changing. Happier and more confident. Obviously my head is lighter without 1xxx of hairs...

Ummmm~ Hungry d~

Lunch time!!!

Cooked something extra ordinary for my bro. His favourite----PETAI !!!

Mom called up around 3pm NZ time. She said she is in Penang. Having dimsum with her old friends and Grandpa. Mom passed the phone to Grandpa and I talked to him. First thing is to congrates him about Uncle Leslie's marriage. He said finally, a RELIEF for him! From his voice, I can feel that he is really really happy and 'free' from thinking, all these while for making up dates for uncle. He is so scared that uncle wont get married till old time!!p.s. he even tell me that uncle is actually 45 years old d, and his wife-to-be is almost 40 too. such a nice coincidence, she is from Kelantan too! Grandpa seem to be really excited bout this. =P
Before hanging up, he said to me, come back faster and he will bring me to that yumcha place too!!
Awwwww....at that moment only I got a sudden struck on me, an odd one, that I actually .....actually miss them so much!!!! Just couldnt cry out the feeling!

p.s. I think that is what every parent will be worrying about when their kids grow up as adults, when the age comes. Rmb dad used to say about life cycle, it is so true,...we cant expect our elderly to be with us all the times, even till we get married. In the end, we still need to have our own family and bring up our children and grow old with our life partner. We have to take up the role of our parents and life cycles continue when our kids replace us.

Pray hard for everyone's happiness.
"Eat, Pray and Love" ! Cheers~ =P

He called up on his birthday.
We were silent for a few 'a while'.
He said he is happy to talk to me. 1st time over the phone.
He doesnt know I can speak in Chinese. =P
So we end up speaking in English. Which is good for me I guess?! hehehe=)
Hopefully thats the best gift from me for his birthday.
Trying to take ALL as what a good friend will do.

At the moment, I wanna clear up my mind. Just wanna concentrate on what I should do now.
S-T-U-D-Y for my Final. 2nd year of Uni is really killing me. Workload and the stress almost make me breathless.
Week after week, weekend after weekend. It just ends like that.

Im frightened by the thinking of cant cope with all these.
But for sure, I still have to face this.
Pray ~~hard~~? ~~harder~~? hardest. Fingers crossed. Things will get better.

Time passed so fast. Its almost mid of October already.
I am facing more and more challenges in life, in studies, at work, and even in relationship.
It is such a big doubt to mostly, everyone, to decide whether he/she is the one...
But when you have 2 equally excellent options that show up at the same time, what would you do?
Which one will you go for?

Recently, I am thinking deeply, so hard.
This year is not the same as last year.
I need a plan, A GOOD PLAN.
Not to go back for summer means I need to spend my times wisely.
I might not go for fruit-picking since brother is here, he must be boring all alone in Auckland.
Wanted to go for road trip, but fund is limited. Perhaps just few days will do.=)

I hope I could handle both well, I dont wanna end up hurting both sides, or maybe 'tri-sides', including myself.
It is really painful. I knew that. I felt that. I heard that. I dont want that.

Decision making!

2010-10-11T13:00:00.002+08:00

Here I am again, standing at the junction, between choices . Both r equally good. Just that one is near, the other one is further away at the moment. Which one should I choose?

So much thing to think of now...need to prepare for exam, need to find a new place to stay, need to do this, need to do that~~....so so mafan!!=(

my favourite subject

2010-09-27T16:14:00.000+08:00

Sitting alone in this living room, I slowly calm myself down. Open the page, as usual, use my palm to close the screen where the marks are. Take a deep breath, then only put away my palm slowly. The marks popped up.
='( WT*.......shuuttttt~...........I just barely passed it!! What a loser! what a nightmare I hav?!!!!!
Cant accept!! I went for lectures, I did all the tutorial question and the assignment. Even help out my friends for their assignment and quizzes. I studied so hard and being so confident before I sit for my Maths test.
It have been, and always have been my fav subject. Since primary school, my maths result is always good, I mean, acceptable to be excellent, ~~although is not the best~~. But why this time?? So dissapointed for myself. What happen to me actually? Why isit so many unexpected things happened around me recently??!!
I really dunno how to study for it d. So hard, so bad. 2nd year of UNI is killing me no matter how hard I tried to think it is not as hard as what others has told me! I dont like this feelings, I'm so tired!

22/9/2010 : 中秋节快乐！

不一样的中秋节。
今年，弟弟们都在这里聚会。
好开心！我们跟小弟的几位朋友一起吃‘团圆饭’。
今晚，每一间餐馆都大排长龙。
我忘了我们到底是在哪个地区的一间餐馆吃饭。
那晚上菜很慢，要等很久，餐馆满座。
点了几样小菜，都是以‘猪’为主。哈哈！

还有臭豆腐！

看见别桌的顾客都是一家人在吃晚饭，我突然好想爹地和妈咪。

在家里，要是有这么一个节日，大家一定会到餐厅吃饭，都会把公公婆婆/叔叔婶婶们叫出来！好热闹！好想您们！=P

贴心的妈咪寄来的月饼(红色包装的)，老板给的(3合一的)，同事给的(桂圆的)。。。

超舍不得吃掉它们啦~怎么办？=P

吃完晚饭，小弟的朋友邀我们到他家去唱K。
哈，好好玩！
当晚，小弟的朋友买的冰皮月饼，超贵的咯！
好吃，好吃！

4/9/10 Tragedy

2010-09-05T17:11:00.001+08:00

4/9/10(Sat)
FRAGILE TOWN-CHRISTCHURCH
~mother nature is angry, powerful 7.1 magnitude, huge shaking~
Earthquake happened in Christchurch this morning, around 4.30am and later at 8am again. As soon as I know about this, I quickly text all of my friends that stay there. Fingers crossed, they are all alright, but some are still in trauma. =( Some friend are still asleep when it happened; some are drunk from ~~Friday night~~ drinking night so didnt even feel the shaking; some friends were having meals as it is still within Ramadhan month.

And currently they are still having curfew,7 to 7. hopefully they hav enough food stored at home. heard from the news, water supply will be limited and hopefully ppl at home dont flush their toilets. hehe funny but true! my friend told me that his best boy friend text him after the shake, saying he is so scared. I nvr laugh at him cuz natural disaster is not a joke, no harm to be afraid of it... be strong ppl.

I always have this habit (not sure if it is a bad one)-- like to put myself into ppl's shoes. I wonder what will happen if I am staying in Christchurch too?! Maybe I will be panic and probably crying when this happen, and excited on the other hand cuz definitely this will never happen in Malaysia. Another question is: what is the first thing that come into my mind if earthquake happens? Who will I want to meet the most? =.="
Fingers crossed again, praying hard in my heart: Auckland is the safest place to live in so far! Luckily I didnt pick to study in UC last time!=P Thanks god...

PLANE CRASH
Took place at Fox Glacier, South Island as well.
Not sure if this will still stop me from planning a sky dive in the future.=.=

2 incidents happened on the same day. Mother nature is really really angry i think.=(

Recipe for today

2010-08-14T18:02:00.000+08:00

Went to visit my brother Billy today. Cooked lunch for him. His favourite. My first time, trying to cook this too. Wasnt too bad after all.

Name: Ayam Masak Rempah (Indian Chicken)

Ingredients:

Chicken,
Red onions,
Garlic,
Ginger,
Curry Leaf,
'8-stars' spices,
curry powder,
soy sauce (kicap ABC),
oyster sauce,
salt,
sugar.

Instructions:

1. Cut the chicken into cube. You can choose to marinate them with soy sauce and oyster sauce first.(just to get ride of the chicken smell)

2. Then, cut onions,garlic and ginger. Wash the curry leaf. Put all these aside with the '8-stars' spices.

3. Mix curry powder with cold water into a bowl. Not too much of water.

4. Heat the pan. Pour the oil. When it is hot, put items from Number 2 into the pan. Wait till u can smell the aroma.

5. Pour the curry mixture from Number 3 into the pan. Wait till it 'pecah minyak', i.e u will see two separate portions of 'thingy' in the mixtures or at the status where the oil turned to be really orange color.

6. After about 5 mins, put the chicken into the pan. Stir it well. Add in salt and sugar accordingly. Wait for the chicken to be cooked.

7. Finally, serve it with rice.

TAddaaaa!!=P
Dinner is ready! Enjoy ur meal.....

p/s: not a proper picture, cuz almost forgot to take picture of it. hehehe!!

YES Man!

2010-08-07T22:49:00.000+08:00

Times fly, every single seconds is precious. I'm here for almost 2 years.
After watching 'YES MAN' during last Winter break, I am influenced by Jim Carrey in that movie. Since last holiday, I dunno how many 'YES!'(es) I have been pronouncing! From these, I knew lots of new friends; I had so many outting with (new) friends; I had so ~~many~~ much meals with friends; Conclusion: I had so much ~~FUN~~ money go out of it! hehehe=P I remember back at Huia last year where I stayed, I hardly hang out with people, I save like a lot of $$. Maybe becuz I was so 'kupik' to spend, keep on converting every single dollar I have, was thinking how much each outting will cost and so on, end up staying in my room and Youtube-ing. hahahaha=P thats how I spent my weekendssss!

Hmm, but now, it's gonna be the same again. Will have to study harder! after all, 2nd year marr..need to struggle and study smarter! Wanna get good grades to graduate. If not every single ppl with Bcom degree would have been indifferent. LOL, like what my friend, Yong used to said, since his sis,Jan, and his cousin sister,Jayne are doing Bcom too, 3 of us might be ending up going after one vacancy in the company.Who knows right?

I am getting ~~poor~~ (poorer)^2, this month since I took it so long to consider whether to get the COMLAW txtbook from the bookshop or not early of this sem; now end up have to buy a brand new one from there since the 2nd hand one all ~~gone~~ SOLD OUT! Summore no more student discounts!! PROMOTION end liao!! haiz...乖乖的买下来了. if not later blaming myself didnt get good score cuz didnt buy the textbook. *swt =_="

headache when making decision. Might just tell myself that it is a brilliant idea to do so cuz I earned the interest for my savings account for not spending it earlier. TIME VALUE OF MONEY. *peace* succeed in applying my theory again! ^ 0 ^

Lesson for this week: no more dining outside! Stay at home, makan Ramen saja larr..hehe=P

2010-07-25T20:24:00.000+08:00

First week of new sem just gone. Feel like I should have started catching up on studies. Updating my calendar book, mark down all the assgmt due dates, tests and etc.

Before dealing with all these obligations, I advise myself to be online and catch up with people I havent been talking to for ages. Oh well, once I am 'AVAILABLE' (p/s: on msn, not relationship status larr!), everyone pops up! Chat with an old friend. He used to be so quiet in class until you can even count how much words he has spoken to you within a year, seriously! But now, he pop up on msn, saying hi, then before "GTG, BYE", he even ask me "rmb to dream bout me, but not 18SX type de oo"...*tsk tsk, speechless!Cant imagine that was HIM that said so!!

昨天晚上买了两只鸡。回来时，放在厨房。

可见得大家都在争气，看谁最BEH TAHAN了就去处理它。

我呢，sipek累了，真的不管那么多了，看着 “她” 还在边吃，边看着电脑。等下 “她” 吃完了，就应该会去处理吧。ok, 我先去睡！

今早起来，妈的，鸡还在那边，鸡当然臭了啦，不管了啦，照样用水冲冲了，放在冰箱里。

处理完了那些鸡，才发现到，“她” 实在很懒惰咯，昨晚吃剩的水果皮都没丢，还放在她桌上。这还像是人会做的事吗？人长得美美，tapi肮脏成这个地步，这怎么嫁人啊？还说不久要结婚了！疯了，疯了！

到最后，还是我去处理！这些人hor,.......真的啊！已经是我volunteer去买食物和日常用品了，辛辛苦苦拿回来不要紧啦，还要我去处理。有点过份咯！

娃爱孝了啦！

Billy is in Auckland!!

2010-07-06T19:18:00.000+08:00

Sometimes it is better to depend on our own for something that we have to face. Waiting for someone for the help not so easy.
Today, I rent a car to pick up my beloved brother Billy from the airport. HE is my first beloved family that came to Auckland! Miss him so much! And, finally he is here.
Mom and I were so worried about him. They call me around 12pm NZ time which is around 8am of Malaysia time to ask where am I. Then I said, I was at the airport. They were so surprised saying why so early. Then I said because bro had called me saying he had landed. They were actually confused with the arrival time, not sure whether the time shown on the ticket is Malaysian or NZ time. =)
After pick up, bring him to had lunch at a Thai restaurant. When paying for the food, it costs me $24.50. Bro was silent for a while. HE was actually counting and converting that amount into RM. Omg! HE said, that so expensive! Then what should I feed myself?!?!
HAHAHA... this remind me of myself, when I was here on the very FIRST WEEK..converting every single kiwi dollar into Malaysian Ringgit.
Then, I brought him to his accommodation. Luckily, the accommodation management was really kind and very very friendly....Thanks for letting brother stayed one night before he made the full payment. There is a mis-com thats why it happens that way...
Funny thing happened here. Bro was really spellbounded when he saw his accommodation was so rural with trees and streams and the stairs, up and down. Haha, will upload the pictures soon so that it could explain this statement better.
Then, after settle everything, brought bro to Pak n Save to get his grocery shopping. He was amazed to see the supermarket, only food, no other stuff like clothes and all. Very different from TESCO in Malaysia. Oh ya, and grocery shopping without plastic bag! Means have to move everything from the trolley into the car boot one by one. So ma fan cuz they are running out of boxes for us to grab!
Later, bring him back to his accom again. And, left him with his flatmates. Hopefully he is independent enough to stay on his own.
Gud luck, bro! Jiayo!!

你做错了吗?

2010-05-15T15:39:00.000+08:00

大概很久没有写部落了。
最近很忙，会考的成绩重重的打击我。
不是一个，但是接二连三的冲着来。
真的快受不了了。。。

要不是我错于以为自己已准备好，
就不会拿到酱烂的分数。

近期的几个月，在大学的课程上，
学到很多有关法律的事。
我才发现，人往往都会做错，
所以才会有法律，警官，保安队；

还有，就是因为人会做错，
我爸才会有生意做。
对吧？！=P

Wah, Beh Tahan liao larrrr~!!

2010-05-04T22:39:00.000+08:00

Tolong larrr!!!
Sometimes,
I really dont understand some people..
How they think, and how could they behave like that.
It's weird!

Sometimes,
I dunno whether knowing more truth is better.
Sometimes,
I prefer run away from the sources that let me know all,
But Sometimes,
I will be curious to know more.
But sometimes also,
I will find it annoying and such a burden for me to know it too much!
Actually should I know more or less?
Which way better?

I hate to be the middle person!
..........A LOT!..........
I hate to be the one that know the truth,
But cant tell the other side,
I hate to be the one that know more but cant tell!
I hate that feelings!

I hate to be too caring about other people,
Cuz they make me think too much about their problem,
And I will always figure out how to solve their doubts,
Cuz I felt bad when they r not happy...
See,...
After all, I am the one who suffer the most!

God, please help me!
Oh no, Please help them,
When they are happy,
Then I am happy!

Between people,
Communication is the main key...
So people, communicate well larr!!
Nowadays got phone, got internet,
Not for you to take pictures and play games Only,
But for you to call!
If so stingy to call, or malu to talk,
sms lar...takkan tak pandai?!
Susah susah saja orang cipta handphone tapi korang tak pandai nak guna!
Apa ni?!!!

Aku pening!!
Keep shaking my head,
Non stop this week,
Gonna be Ama-nene d soon...
So, TOLONG larr people....

I cant sleep at night....
Seems like I'm more comfortable with the tranquility of midnight...
I can study when no one is around,
I can study when there is no heavy machinery sounds,
My mind can just su*k in everything that I am revising now...

MG, she is emo and sad again...
How am I going to comfort her?
I admitted I am a sensitive girl...
Cant stand people crying or sobbing...
I will join the tears too...
I'm not good in advising...
Maybe just listening and cry over together.

People is emo when they think too much.
People think too much when they are emo...
That's how people take 'short cut', on their wrist,
And committed suicide...

But tonight you just sit and silent all night....
I was silent too, not knowing where to start,
how to start and how to ask.
I dont exactly know how you feel,
Since you will only show up when you are sad,
And never find anyone else but me...

Im glad to be your listener,
And I always do, happy to be,
Even if you are just silent when you see me,
after you say hi to me,
At least I know when you are not ok....

My advise is just : let it be,
sad no use, it hurts yourself,
darken your day,
'un'cheer your emotion,
which isnt good for health.

Do u agree?

Good Friday To Blog

2010-04-02T13:33:00.000+08:00

Blogging is a good way to release tension.
This is what I knew so far...

Recently I met someone...
He always pop up when I need someone to talk to...
Like he knows I need a comfort shoulder to lean on,
Like he knows I need a listener, not opinions,
Like he knows I need jokes to cheer up,
Like he knows what I need, all I need.

Thanks for being there for me when I need someone.
I am not sure about the future.....
I have a plan but I'm not sure if I will stick on it,
Since I am so 'flexible' and '善变'...

The moment I say YES, anytime after that I can say NO
This is not good ....=(
Especially in this world that full of choices,
Choices between NZ or Aussie,
Choices between white bread or wholemeal bread,
Choices between Hot Choc or Coffee,
Choices between library or home,(study space)
Choices between sushi or butter chicken,(lunch)
Choices choices.....=_=''

Since I picked NZ,
I met NZer-thinking people...
These people influence me,
These people teach me,
To be a better Wan Yen.

I am still wondering,
Is this all arranged since I was born...
I just found out some facts about myself:

1. I am so easily get distracted by anything that affect my life,
i.e news from Malaysia.
2. I like to imagine what will happen in the future before I take any decision.
3. I have to study on my own, ya, alone in the library where I dunno who else sitting besides me,
cuz I tend to talk with anyone beside me if I knew him/her.
4. I miss Malaysia! People at home, people that I know!

Skype with grandma and grandpa last Wednesday. Omg, grandpa looked ageing, and I hope he still remember who I am. The sec I saw grandma, I nearly cry. Is this mean I missed them a lot!?
Oh god, I never felt like this before.
Is this mean I should go back to Malaysia end of this year?

Webcam-ing with Hamsa last Sunday. Miss her a lot.
She is blonde, very blonde. From her voice, her life is much more better there.

Skype with zhiting, khexin, kopi and jiasan. They are so funny.
I wrote '物恩喔'...but kopi don understand...HAHA...
then we chat, and 'zho siao' all the times...
They told me they are going clubbing that night.
Ask me to join...Haha, yaya, I wish I could!
Missed those moment with them!

Never Cry Over Spilled Milk

2010-03-08T18:09:00.001+08:00

Salah-Fashion today...
Items : a green singlet top + a short jumper + a pair of black jeans
Sounds pretty ok??
A BIG NO NO.....when you happen to keep pulling your pants while walking, and you have to carry books all the way to UNI!!!
OMG, I cant believe I'll be in that situation.
Btw, can I conclude that maybe I'm slimmer now?
Just a thought... whHuawhuawhuaa..

6pm --- Foodtown trip 4 Grocery
While shopping for UHT Milk since we have an unfuctional fridge,
I dropped one pack of it on the floor!
And, yesss.... It SPILLS, all over the floor!
At first, I tend to be happy because I got the cheap bargain of 3packs of it for only $4.98.
But then I just feel so guilty for not telling the staff I spilled the milk! ( SORRY, StAff! )
Im not sure when did I turn to be so clumsy...
That pack of milk shouldnt be treated like that!
Oh Sh*t!!!

Not a good day to do anything!

Reflection

2009-12-17T01:58:00.001+08:00

Reflection can mean anything...
But mostly ppl will think of the MIRROR.

I know A someone...
That recently act abnormal as usual teenager will do.
I know ANOTHER someone...
That told me he cant help him much.
As he is seeing REFLECTION of himself being a teenager in his...

I am thinking deeply,
How a period of 9 months can change a person.
Into a completely stranger...
Someone that I hardly know,
Hardly recognised is him...

He used to be a happy-go-lucky person,
That everyone love to be around,
Loved to tease....
But now ...360' changed!

I am dissapointed.
How times can changed a person.
How people can changed a person.
How family can changed a person.
How problem can changed a person.
How goods can changed a person.
How things can changed a person.
How hOw hOW....

Who to be blame?
Parents that busy working, earning money?
Siblings that study smarter than he/she?
People around that keep pointing up&down to him/her?
Or people that love to talk something bad about him/her?

Why? Is things gonna be better than what we expect?

The Ugly Truth

2009-12-17T01:48:00.001+08:00

It is so ugly to know the truth.
I wish it never happen before.
Not even as nightmare.

When someone close betrayed you,
Friends will keep it as secret when they know.
When you know the UGLY truth,
They will give an excuse of not letting you know earlier.
That they dont wanna spoilt the sweet moments shared.

Although these happen,
You will still think that your friends are wrong too...
Because they didnt let you know the truth,
And from all that happened,
You are just an idiot under the shell.
Not knowing a predator behind you,
Waiting for the chance to bite you up.

UGLY Truth,
Something hard to be accepted.
Something you have to accept even it is bad/ugly...

Life

2009-12-10T18:09:00.002+08:00

有些时候，人会失去理智，
把不应该的话说出来。
但事情一发生后，就很难再挽回了。。。
俗语说得对：东西可以乱吃，话不可以乱说。。
两天前，在逛百货公司的时候，
接到一个旧朋友的来电，
说是她要结婚了，要请我去喝喜酒。。。
很突然而且也有点惊讶，
毕竟她还很年轻。。。
但每个人都有自己应该走的路，
选择，不停的分析/打算未来。

Yum Char

2009-11-22T02:22:00.000+08:00

Yumchar at TM. Yquan called me late evening to ask if I wanna go out tonight. I said ok since nothing to do.
Around 10.45pm. He come and pick up Jian Wei and I. Kok Leong is in his car too. Then we go pick up Jia San at her house. KL called Chea Chun out too.
Very vEry funny. I laughed all the times. I think wrinkles around my eyes increases. We catch up with stories from everyone. Chit chat for almost 2 hours. The boys chose to go a new shop called TM Kopitiam that has TV as they can watch football. Quite a nice place to chill with drinks and snack. I had Teh Tarik, nice~! Back at around 12.45am. Ah Mak just back from KB. Saw her outside my house. Heard about Ah Pa tricking Da Jie back about the surprise of me coming back. Funny Funny.

Gtg to sleep now, sweet dream everyone. Will update my news about Home Sweet Home more next few days...

6th Nov 09

2009-11-21T00:30:00.000+08:00

A brand new day~!
Free from lecture, tutorial, assignment, exam, and etc etc~!
I know I suppose to feel joys and freedom...
But my feeling doesnt feel that way....
Its so complicated....
Maybe because I wasnt trying hard enough in my exam...
I'm blaming my exam started earlier and finished too much earlier too...
I'm blaming I dont have much times to prepare for them...
I might be more prepared if its later....

Even today, Im free,
Whenever Im Utube-ing movies online,
The guilty-ness is still there,
Keep wondering if Im doing the right thing,
As I should keep watching these movies,
Or get back to study....?!
But why should I study?
I cant change anything regarding my grades even I study now...
Its a P-A-S-T~!~!~!

What I can do now is just keep praying~!
Hoping I will passed all my papers~!

First Year of BCom

2009-11-21T00:29:00.001+08:00

Last time, whenever I heard ppl saying they r studying Business courses,
I will 'je-beh' and think in my heart that this course is definitely much more easier than medic, engineering, law or any other popular courses.

But now, I can sincerely tell everyone that I m wrong....
It doesnt seems to be easy , as I thought~!
Even for 1st yEar, its terrible hard!~!~!
ACCTG 102 paper is the most hardest paper that I ever sit for~!
Not becuz Im not studying for it, but from everyone's view, even if we got the paper earlier, we cant score it well either!!

I had spent my whole day in the library to study for it ... But still I cant do it well...
Well, after all, I noticed 1st Year of BCom wasnt that easy....
And, this might mean graduates from Uni of Auckland are all high-qualified ones ~!

Headache, headache

2009-11-21T00:29:00.000+08:00

Pening with souvenirs... Buy for who, and what to buy....
Arrgghhh...might end up buying non NZ made stuff...
Not much of choicess...either Fresh Salmon, Abalone, Manuka Honey, Whitakers Choc, Placenta Cream, key chains, NZ printed bookmarks .....

Busy with packing as well,.... What to bring back and what to leave here ....
Oh, need to buy tape tomoro...

Packing and Going Home...

2009-11-21T00:28:00.000+08:00

Less than 12 hours, I m going to leave Auckland.

A place where I spent most of the Year 2009.

The nearer to the time I need to leave,

the unstable my feeling become...

Not sure why, but I just feel that way....

Kinda sad, leaving everyone.

Ppl I met, Some are not coming back next year.

Some are still coming back,
But I still gonna miss them.
Thanks everyone for all the conversation,

even a short Hi-Bye enough to keep u guys in my memories.

Kinda excited to return home,
after leaving for nearly 9 months.

Been packing for nearly 3 days,

I really hate myself for being so 'Nian Jiu',

always sayang this sayang that,

Not willing to throw this and that,

This make packing even worst,

End up to be 2 huge bags that gonna be sent to the Storage place.

Although I already distributed some stuff that I think is not willingly to be kept.

Some even goes to the Charity Box downstairs.

Haiz,..headache with stuff.

Dunno how and when did all these come into my room.
I tot my room already considered to be small,

Never imagine it gonna occupied so many stuff like this...

Bubble Tea

Oh, such a good night. Stay there from 9.30pm till 1am. Gonna miss these~!
Although we all are still coming back to Auckland after this holiday, we feel really sad of separating from Huia.
This is because everyone is moving out from Huia, although some might still stay in Huia.
Everyone is so special, gonna miss everyone. The joy and fun we had, the jokes, the story we shared, the games we played, the advice we shared, everything....=)

I get to talk to Charlene tonight. We shared everything about Taylors. Yup, she is an x-Taylorian too... But she is doing SAM before she gets here. She missed the 'Teh-Ais' from Asia Cafe, fus-ball from Asia Club, Sunway Pyramid, Subang Parade, etc etc.... Oh, missed those days.... We get so excited about My Place Apartment too... How can we never meet each other before this??!!

Oh ya, Manfred and Helen cant make it tonight. Quite sad, Well, Manfred is still having his last exam tomorrow, and he is leaving on Sunday. Thats so soon, So goooD~!~! Well Helen said she cant make it tonight,....maybe next time, sorry for the late inform.

I called Zhiting after bubble tea. Since she left me msn msg asking bout when am I coming back...
Instead of replying her on msn, I called her.
This are our conversation:
Me: Hello.. good evening, can I talk to Miss Ang Zhi Ting pls?
ZT: Hello, ya. Can I know who is this pls?

Auckland Fish Mart

2009-11-09T20:11:00.000+08:00

Sun (8thNov)
Christy come to pick me up at 2pm. And, we went to the fish market. First time being there.
Im so excited when I reached there. Seeing all the fishes ---Snapple, Hoki, Mussle, Salmon, Lemon Fish, Shark meat, prawn, squids and etc....
And, and, I saw living abalone for the 1st time...its as big as my palm. They are sold for NZD $110/kg. And, for farm abalone only NZD $18/kg. Christy is asking about info on buying and packing them to be brought back to Malaysia. Just wondering how and can we do so.... We met Sarah, the manager, she said they did do it quite a lot, ppl come and buy and bring back oversea... Very common and no problem at all..

p/s: quite regret didnt take any pics of the fish mart... Its very different from our Pasar the fish selling sections. Here, is indoor one... No stingy water on the floor ... And, no flies around...

Recently...

2009-10-29T11:17:00.001+08:00

Recently, Im in love with coffee. Feel like I cant live without it. Every morning, I'll have one cup of coffee with toast as breakfast.
Maybe stress? I dont really know! Seems like exam is driving me crazy... And, Im confused...
I realised my memories is getting weaker to remember things...Maybe effect from too much caffeine?

Exam had started today. I had my first paper today. Not too bad after all. Although some of the question confused me; myself confused with the Qs?! Whatever, its over! Might not get distinction this time. Not that confident thou...=(

Econ111 as a start; might be the last Economics paper that I ever sit for in my entire life! That is gonna applied if i didnt change my mind to major in it next year! I know, if I'm gonna take it,means there is going to be more and more essays writing for me. Just had one assignment last few weeks back, 1500 words limit. Even that took me ages to squezze out the words to reach the limit. I cant even imagine what marks I'm going to get!

But, yesterday I cant help myself but to look at the marked script that I had collected from the assignment boxes. I tot I will look at it after the exam so that I will not feel bad about it and screwed the final exam. Oh Well, gosh! the marker must has been too generous to give me that markS! I got such a lucky marker! Thanks a lot! I seen lots of mistakes, especially the referencing part, which most of us dont like(I'm sure you too!)!!!

To stop myself get mad in my room yesterday while doing the past year exam papers, I decided to go to IC to study and discuss it with Ang! Lololl....Im glad to do so, cuz at least I sort out some questions there! We stayed till 12am yesterday! And, I manage to control myself for not having junk food which are really cheap from Munchy Mart!(Twisties $2 for 2 packs) I had Mrs Higgins cookies for snack instead...=P

Ok, times to keep Econs aside, back to Comlaw~! Law~ lAw~ laW~ !
Kinda liking it anyway..hehe..

Last Tutorial for InfoSys

2009-10-20T13:06:00.000+08:00

Its Week 12, last week of 2nd Sem before the exam weeks, H-O-O-R-A-Y!
We had last tutorial for InfoSys 110 today.
Well, I gave a suggestion to take pictures with everyone.
Unluckily, 2 people left earlier. And, left us. Haha...
Anyway, glad that its over!
Well, I think that my tutorial friends are much more better and friendly if compare to others' tutorial.
We get along very well although we are not in the same group for the last assignment.
I'm glad that today, my phonebook is added with few friends again! hehe=P
And, before we left Uni, all of us exchange phone number, email, and msn.
Well, it is good to keep in touch since we might be classmates next semester.
Besides, we can have group discussion!
Yeah, now I'm glad to tell Angela that I'm not being anti-social anymore!
This are the picture we took in class. Taken by Val(our tutor). She doesn't wanna join us in the picture.
So, only us!..Smile guys!

埋怨人生哲理

2009-10-20T12:49:00.000+08:00

前天，妈妈留言：乡下有个亲戚的长子结婚。
请客当天，他爸不幸心脏病发，去世了。
他一定不知应开心，还是伤心。。
开心因为婚事，伤心因为丧事。。
妈妈说：没办法，喜酒照样进行，
在我婆婆家摆，因为他家在我婆婆家隔壁，
而他家就办丧事。。。= (

昨天下午，收到妈妈的简讯，
我婶婶生了个男宝宝！！

今天，妈妈又留言了：
记得帮你叔叔想想要给新宝宝取个好名字哦！
许汉诚，许汉勇，许汉雄，许汉强，许汉豪？
暂时只想到这些。。。

Hamsa Said

2009-10-04T18:32:00.001+08:00

Yesterday talked to Hamsa. She asked me how am I and everything. Then she take a look at my facebook pics while talking to me. I told her I went picnic yesterday. Then, she was surprised! She asked me: “Are you sure you are at New Zealand??? It looked more likely you are in UM or any other local Universities!! Haha.” Then she said, “Why? You are mixing with all Malay friends. And , you are the only one without scarf! I really scare when you come back to Malaysia and told me that you are going to convert into Islam. And I am worried for your mom too….HAHAHAHAH~!!” She called her brother and cousins all come in the front the laptop and check out my photos. See, See, she even wear the Malay traditional clothes!… HAHA…

Then I said: HAHA, Ya, I even eat Halal chicken! Well, since I’m cooking with them. Of course la, we eat Halal chicken. But I dont mind if its halal or not. Cuz it still taste the same, and it is still chicken anyway!

Surprisingly, she is not the first one who told or asked me that. Some other friends also asked me too. But maybe I can mixed well with them, maybe I can speak fluent Malay, so there’s no obligations for me not to be with them. After all I still learnt a lot from them. Look at my cooking, then it prove everything! I think because it is Raya season now. So we hang out a lot and from these, I knew a lot of new Malay friends. And, Malaysian Chinese too. See, 1Malaysia effect!!

And, no worries, Hamsa. I am still stick to Chinese guys. Not going after Malay larr…I still love to eat 叉烧酥/叉烧包/叉烧饭/烧卖/排骨/肉丸/三层肉KERABU/叉烧肠粉/小龙包/糯米鸡/烘肉/烧肉等等。。。真的AROU JIN JIN…..~!~!

Meanwhile, as usual she talked about hers. Someone at her workplace propose to her. A Chinese guy, he told her: I dont mind to convert into Islam, because I used to be Buddhist and now I converted into Christian. But Hamsa rejected him by saying, You are too young for me. People at your age called me Mama instead of asking me out for a date. Funny eh?

Ok, got to go back to work. Been to play basketball this morning. Was too too tired. Need to see the doctor soon, but the appointment is only available on next next Monday. These few days, I feel like myself got Anaemia again. Walk a bit feel tired , keep on feeling tired. I stop eating the Iron tablets given by Dr. Goh last 3 months. Cuz I tot I dont need it anymore. Maybe I should go to the Chinese store to get some ginseng or medic that 补血.

Knowing The Truth

2009-10-03T07:51:00.001+08:00

Knowing you not telling me the truth is really hurting me.
I am so sad, suddenly feel like we are apparently from different world, or perhaps belongs to different world.
Maybe for some people, my thinking is consider too childish, or too sensitive.
But I really get hurt, really hurt after knowing what's happening.
Why is it so hard for you to just tell me the truth?
Why you need to make out other reasons to cover your 'dont-want' ?
Why did you treat me so?
Now, seems like I dont know you much.
We seems to be stranger to each other.
How am I going to face you again?
I scared I will think of this lie that you make.
I scared I cant control myself and blame you.
The gap between us are getting bigger,
Apart from land, sea and air.
Far far away, You have changed!

27th Sept 09

2009-09-27T19:33:00.000+08:00

Daylight saving starts today. Have to adjust the clock one hour forward. Pening pening still... Dunno why they want to have such system.

I helped a Korean girl from my lecture to go up the slope. She's sitting on the wheelchair. Very 'cham' one. Pity her and her mom, make such a big effort to up the slope. Even us the normal ppl feel tired to walk up the slope. Cant imagine she has to take the same way up and down the slope to Uni. Really solute her for her courage and strength!! Eventhough Im tired halfway, but I tell myself I cant stop, if I do, we will roll down the slope together!!! And, she hold on very hard too, keep scrolling the wheels using her hands too!!

I went out with Christy again today. Will upload the pic when Im free. We went to Mooncake Festival Fair at Manukau. And, went to Botanical Garden. Yeah, finally can take pics with flowers!!! Very colourful !!
She told me its not hard to get a PR here, as long as I have my Degree and got a related Job. Then if I passed the requirement, I will get it!

Chat with mom, she said Ko Yii gonna get marry in December 6th. Mom and Ah Mak and everyone gonna go to KL for this dinner. Really fast, he's getting married already. In my mind, he is still a very young koko that I knew. Anyway, wish him the best. Wonder if Ah Terk will go back for his wedding...=)

Ok, Night night!..

One Malaysia

2009-09-21T11:43:00.000+08:00

Yeah, finally~! Everything ended with joys and fun!

Event: Eid Mubarak
Venue: Huia G Floor Dining Hall
Time: 7.30pm till 12am
Food: Nasi Dagang, Gulai Ikan, Nasi Tomato, Acar, Ayam Ros, Rendang Ayam, Rendang Daging, Daging Hitam, Lontong, Lemang, Nasi Impit, Kuah Kacang, Sate, Onde-Onde, Cakes, Almond LOndon, Kek Batik, Caramel Pudding, Cookies, and etc!!!

Its was fun organising such event. Never had this in my life. I knew lots of Malaysian while cooking together. The cooking teams made of around 61 boys and girls. Look at all the girls that I know preparing this and that, make me feel like they already handle such event for long time! I really respect them! Even the boys can cook so well! We are actually preparing for 200 people last night but seems like more than that that turned up! I dont even know or seen some of them before. So strange! Its like someone post this event in the internet and everyone was alert that there's free dinner in Huia. Thats how they came~! ahhaha....

Food was served in the hall and people gathered around, talking while eating. The boys also turn on Raya songs as the background music. So crowded, so warm, feels like at home.

They have upacara salam bersalaman with their beloved lecturer, Sherral and Jackie. Oh, Aiman cried while asking for apology from Sherral. She must be missing home badly. So do some other girls that noticed that.

We are glad and happy that everyone like our food. Mat Salleh semua kata Sedapp.... although its quite spicy for them. When I was serving them, some of them said: 'No worries, I love spicyy food~!' haha...Some even come for 2nd round. Wow, how delicious is that!

One more thing is, until today. My hair still smell like Rendang, Sate and Lontong, even after I wash it. My clothes and pants all smell~!

Taste of Malaysia

2009-09-19T23:08:00.000+08:00

Since Friday, everyone was busy preparing ingredients for this coming event. Raya is coming, but we are not sure when it will be.
On Friday night, all of us were crying, badly. You know why? Cuz we are cutting ONION. haha=)
I slept at 3am.

Next morning, went out with Christy to an event in ASB ShowGround-- Taste of Japan. All sort of Japanese goods and services, as well as food were there. I had a Japanese Pizza, which is a pancake with ham, carrot and vege as topping. Christy had Udon Curry. It's quite cheap, only $5. Then we walked around and witness some performances. There are also Fashion Show, which is very interesting. Kids dressed up in Kimono and walked on the stage. So cute. Then I had green tea Ice-cream, ummmhhh...Yummy~!~!~!=P

Later, we went to ONE TREE HILL for a walk and sightseeing. From there, I can see whole Auckland City. And, its quite chilly over there. According to Christy, there's ONLY one tree at the top, that's how it got its name! But now its gone. Heard that the city council will replant the tree, but dunno. Maybe.
Before went up to One Tree Hill, we stopped at the park to take pictures with Cherry Blossom. Oh gosh, I wonder if this is what they called the Sakura in Japan??? So So So beautiful and its like fake flowers! Whenever the wind blow at it, it will rain like snow.....sprinkle on the green grass evenly...What a nice view...

Reach home at 4pm. Start helping the girls. I helped Kak Sha. 'LONTONG' Department. Now I learnt how to cook Lontong--Nasi Impit and the soup. Yummy~! I also helped to prepare the Lemang. They cant find bamboo here, so we wrap the rice with Aluminium Foil and cooked it on the coal. We tried to cooked it in the oven, but its still not burnt evenly...We tried the first lemang...=)
Actually is, we tried almost every first cooked dishes.

From what I had seem and experienced, I felt happy to be part of the community to prepare this event. Since Friday night, when everyone gathered to cut the ingredients, it feels like we are bunch of housewives in the village, gathered and shared our story as well as talked about others while preparing for someone's daughter's wedding. We called it 'Bek Woh', which mean 'BIG WORK'...So happy! Even if I'm in Malaysia now, I dont think I will have such chance to organise this kind of event !!! Then its amazing to see all Malaysian, Malay, Chinese, Indian and even Dusun are here. Among Malay, everyone came from different states and districts. But still we reconcile, share our cooking recipes and prepare for this big event. Or I should say, they are quite co-operate. I think I wont have the chance to celebrate CNY that way in overseas.

Some Mat Salleh came and asked what were we doing. They thought we are having Cooking Competition of what. Some even asked me, why did I involve myself since I m not even Muslim? They really dont understand our culture. Too bad.

Anyway , Im off to bed. Gonna prepare for tomorrow night. Everyone were quite upset cuz Raya is postpone to Monday here, since the Iman said that THE MOON IS NOT SEEN YET TONIGHT! But back in MAlaysia, tomorrow CONFIRM RAYA~!
I think I felt more excited than them. hehe, even bring out and iron my Baju Kurung~!~! huhu~!Looking forward for tomorrowww..!

Wednesday

2009-09-16T14:19:00.001+08:00

Well, I suppose to have InfoSys lecture today. But something odd happened in the lecture. Someone walked out the lecture hall just like that after 15mins the lecture start, then another two, three ang mo also do the same.Then the lecturer get pissed off, and decided he will do the same too. And, he cancelled the lecture for the day! We are so helpless of what's happening!
Actually I also dont like those people that just walked like that! In my opinion, it is so rude. If in Malaysia, we wont do that! Even if the lecture is boring, people will just stay and sleep in the class, instead of stand up and walk off! Maybe these people trying to prove that student union is more powerful than the teaching teams! Oh, I hope these people are not going to be teachers or lecturers, because karma may happen to them! For God sake~!
Haiz, make me walk to school and stay for 15 mins only! then come back again! What a waste of time!

兼职的苦衷

2009-09-13T17:25:00.000+08:00

谁能明了我的苦衷呢？

一直受到朋友们的影响，让我觉得我真的应该找份兼职。可是，身边还在找着工作的朋友依然有很多！奥克兰是个大城市，工作机会都不会很多。就连麦当劳都已经不需要工人了！嗨~！

别人去试工，我也去；但别人被聘请；我却被淘汰！
真的觉得自己很失败，就连当个餐厅服务员都不成。

刚才跟朋友一边做饭，一边聊天。说到她兼职的时候，我心里的确有想问她到底她工作的地方还要请人吗。但后来想想，自己这学期的时间表都排得乱七八糟，很难再把工作时间挤下去了！
突然，她问起我一周里哪天是最得空的。我说：星期四。只有一节， 2点到5点而已。她说：要是星期一，二，三，就可以介绍我去她那里打工。因为以前毕竟曾经在小学当临教。 ARRGGHH，临时觉得那份工作与我擦肩而过了~！

嗨~！算了吧~！就让我好好的在这学期拼到底吧！好好念书，兼职的事，下学期再想吧~！

P/S：要是那些老板说会再联系你，请不要抱着很大的希望，傻傻的等待。因为他们都是不会再回电说要聘请你的，那只是个借口！

Karipap~!

2009-09-13T17:03:00.000+08:00

Today is Sunday. My friend make and sell Karipap. To show my support, I bought 10 karipap from her. Haha... But of course I didnt eat all 10! I gave some for the Mat Salleh that I know, Angela and Jia Ni. Keep 4 for myself~! hehe....
It is very nice and cheap -- 3 for $1. And, buy 9, get 1 free. What a good business strategy.

Over dinner, heard my friend said she got order of 188 karipap today!! Well done, Fatin! I wonder how tired you are now! And, she is 'clipping' the karipap using her bare hand, not the plastic clipper that were sold in the market!! Solute u, man!

(Will upload the pic soon!)

And, today too, 3girls and 2boys went shopping for the Raya celebration. They went to a market in Avondale, something like our Pasar Tani, to buy big pot and utensils for cooking. Actually each of us were provided with complete set of cooking utensils in Huia, but it wasnt big enough to be used to cook on that day ! So they have to get those stuff! And, some of them were picked to buy vegetables like Cucumber and Carrot (for 'Acar'). Pity them, gonna be so tired yo! And, of course the hired car as well, they said the car bonnet/boot became lower as it was too full with goods they bought!

But seeing they so 'bersungguh2' in organising this Food Feast, I can feel the warm and inviting characteristics of Malaysian! As this Food Feast are going to be held for 200 people and it includes their lecturers, the hostel members of staff, some hostel friends and all Malaysian!

It's like a very very big project! Looking forward for the day! =P

Another Weekend

2009-09-12T19:56:00.001+08:00

Been to the Asian Market today. Guess what we found ~!~!~! Pandan water in can!!! SO HAPPY!!! Finally we can make some Raya Kuih Muih that using Pandan!!

Well, I start to hate New Zealand now. You know why? Staying in New Zealand has one big problem. That is its so hard to import or bring in plants or food 'alive'. Everything is frozen and packed!! Frozen chilli, tumeric, lemon grass, 'ulam' and etc are mostly imported from Thailand and Vietnam. And, Pandan leaves are frozen and are rare. Not always seen to be available in the Asian Market. Whenever cooking, pandan leaves are handled with care! So 'Ku pick', put only half of a leaf because expensive and hard-to-get. If back in Malaysia, we would be generously throw in 3-4 leaves of pandan leaves in the pot!

Furthermore, we found banana and jackfruits in can~! Even prawn and squid are frozen!Apa lar mat salleh nih! Asyik Asyik frozen food dengan canned food je.....Ish Ish Ish...= <

Over dinner, my friend told us that her parent sent her Raya clothes. And, her clothes was hold by the immigration. She was told to wait for another week before they post it to hers. So strange, its just clothes and not food, why is it stucked at the immi? I said maybe her clothes smell strongly. So they hold it! hehe...then my friend said: Maybe the silkworms are still sticked to the clothes! hahaha....

Actually, I'm so envy her! Even Raya got new 'imported' clothes.Mummy never send me anything. My friends' parents sent them everything: food, cooking ingredients, Yis(for donut), even pen!!! I know I shouldnt think like this, cuz I sounds so childish... But I guess its really touching and exciting to receive parcel when you are checking your mailbox after coming back from Uni ! And, I also start to think what will happen when I'm here for CNY. Am I going to miss home badly? Or am I going to feel nothing? ='(

Talked to mom today. She is complaining about dad. haha...they are like just-married-couple that quarrel over small matter la. 真是没眼看啊！hehe....
Msn with Hamsa too. She asked me why am I still single, then I said I always stay in my room, how am I going to meet someone?! Lol.....

So fast, i'm going to finish my study break soon. Uni going to start again this Monday. Haiz, Accounting test is on Tuesday, Assignment going to due next next week, Oral Presentation next week... bla bla bla....Workload, all coming!!!!
Its time for me to rearrange my life! Wake up early and go to Uni! oh oh....~!

Tonight

2009-09-03T16:04:00.000+08:00

Dinner at 6.30pm. Earlier as my friends' were fasting these days.
Over dinner, they were talking about their crush in secondary school.
Oh well, that reminds me of mine....=P

I cant really rmb who are the first one...Yupp, its true, at that time, quite a lot of ppl chasing after me.
Im not lying, but its quite true. Let me break the promise of myself and share with people that read my blog..hehe..

First:Mr. M.
He is in Form 4 when I first came to SMK Dato Mahmud. He is tall, specky and kinda cool. I cant remember how did I know about his feelings towards me. All I remember is one day after school, I heard someone shouting above my class which sounds like this: KOH WAN YEN, I LIKE U! Honestly, I really cant believe it when I heard it! All my friends were staring at me and looked at me like Im an Alien or something! My face turned red immediately! And, when I think back now, its sounds funny thou! Maybe he is paid by his friends to do so... or maybe its true! Oh well, I had fun from that! hehehe=P

Second: Mr. JY.
He is in Form 5. Yep, I'm in Form 1 that time. He is a friend of Mr. YS, which I will introduced him later. This Mr JY is really friendly and he will always hang out with his friend called Mr. YC. I always see both of them together, walking passed my classroom and we will always say 'hi' by throwing a big smile at each other. My friend and I will call him 'Princess' , since he got a short fringe in front on his forehead, and he like to flip it when he is walking...=)
The thing is, at first he suppose to just be the postman for Mr. YS---sending love letter, presents, cards and stuff to me. But later, he is the one that come and tell me that he like me! Humanity is so surprising sometimes! I dont know when did the feelings starts but before they graduate, he wrote a short notes on my memorable album. Saying that he likes me, and he try to ask me out. There's even more funny scene coming up. After he graduate. He come to accompany me to cycle to Nimar 500 tuition place. Oh god,he came all the way from his house, and cycle with me to my tuition class, just to grab and spend that 10 mins cycling times to talk to me!!! Oh wow, when I think about it now, its actually more than enough to 'touch' my heart!!! I wonder why I didnt say yes that time! ERM ERM.... But at last, I didnt say YES to him. I rejected him by saying MUMMY DONT WANT ME TO HAVE BOYFRIEND YET. SHE WANT ME TO CONCENTRATE ON STUDIES! So, he end up be my friend, hoping for future, maybe we will meet up again and be couple then....who knows? But I knew that he is taken now, with someone really cute. Wish him the best!=)

Third: Mr. YS
He is a friend of Mr. JY. He is a very cool guy, dont even talk to me whenever he see me.Maybe he is too shy. He is also known as the 'Window-Sided Boy' as he is sitting next to the window in his class. And, whenever its my break time or Moral class, he will look down from the window and start searching for my shadow...hehe=) Yupp, whenever his other friends saw that, they will yell at him and ask him not to do so. There's one time when the teacher in front noticed his act and ask him to change his seat with someone else. Its so funny when I was told by his friend! He is the one that wrote me the most love letters. He will sign out as 'Window-sided Boy' in every of his letters to me. On Valentine's Day, he asked his sister to pass me a present. Thats how I befriend with his sister too. Before he graduate, me too, rejected him using the same Excuse as to Mr. JY. The extra thing is , I treat him as my god-brother. And, we did keep in touch few years after his graduation. Then later, not seeing each other anymore.

Forth: Mr. KS
He is Form 5. Quite tanned, also a boy with fringe. He is more lepak than the rest. Cuz he is a bad boy in school. Like to loafing around the school, especially at the school canteen. He had more dilemma with me, as he is daring enough to call my house phone! Everyday after school, he will call me and I will always 'keep an eye' on the phone, so that no one will grab the phone before I did, or else, MATI LARR I...Mummy gonna kill me, Man!!! I cant remember what did we talk over the phone, but I just remember he will call me...Everyday. Till one day, when he asked me: Am I bothering you as I call you everyday? Then I reply: Yes, very very very very disturbing! Actually, I didnt mean it. I am just trying to make a joke over here. But he hang up after the call. And, since that day, he never called back! I'm kinda sad that time....Trying to apologise for that. But nevermind. Maybe he is just not that into me! Ya, I did try harder to make myself comfortable...=P

There's few other people that like me too....I got flowers, love letters, and some gifts under my table when I came back from Moral classes or Lab. Its fun and amazing when I think back , and if I said it out now, it will surely be joke to everyone that heard it! Oh well, secondary school life wasnt too bad after all! I had a great time, and Im quite happy that I used to have these crush! They make my life more interesting and happier! HAHAHAHA....

1st of Aug

2009-08-01T14:30:00.000+08:00

Not much of today.
Join hostel team to play Inter Res Basketball again.

And, guess what? We won!! I got a treat from our hostel manager. A drink that worth $4.
Not a big gift, but I am very happy because i had fun. I sweat a lot through the games! I learnt some new skills from the team too. And, get to improve some of my movement as well.
And, there were people giving away Magnum ice-cream and Red Bull. Lucky day~!

On my way back from the match, I was thinking should I still stay in Huia next year? I think Huia is a great place to stay. And, see, I can join all these games, meet new people and go to the gym to work out for free. Ermm~~....But flatting is good too.. I might have a bigger room, safe some money for shopping and have my own living room...
huhu, so confused!

Homesick

2009-07-28T14:45:00.000+08:00

Recently, someone asked me, if I am being homesick since I got here; I denied and said no because I kept making myself busy with Uni workload and forget bout this. But after spending less than a week with my brother,then only I realised that how much I am being homesick. Oh gosh~! That feeling came when I was stepping into the boarding gate before I said goodbye and wave at him. After enter the gate, before boarding, he sent me an sms: Hey sis, sorry yea, I don wanna hug you because I worried I m gonna cry so I just wave and said goodbye. I cannot tahan see Aiman and Along (A couple that we knew--my friends)[Actually this is just an excuse, I knew you dont even border what were they doing] Take care. Hope you enjoy here. I am just tired these few days so always end up sleep while I promise to watch movie with you. Bye, miss you, love you sis. Muackss..=)

Right after I got this msg, I felt like just stay back to be with him.Then my friend said to me, although he is just my brother rather than mom or anyone else,its already more than enough to cure a little bit of homesick. No wonder I was so excited b4 flying to Sydney, as I thought I am excited to visit a new country. But actually I was being thrilled to see him! Oh well, I admitted it ! I am really homesick!!!

I miss the moment where we were travelling in the train to the city. We talked a lot than what we usually did back at home. You told me a lot about yourself. From what I can see, you already grow up, a lot. Different from the old Koh Han Pin that I knew. The same thing applied when I see those friends around you that are not so in the 'good conditions'. But you are still like the lotus. Well, you did changed. But to be a good guy.... Mom should be proud of you, bro!=) Seems like it 's a brilliant decision of dad sending you overseas to further your study.

Jia yo, brother!! I knew u can do it! Keep it up, good luck in ur course and faster graduate!!! I want some cheap or maybe free tickets to go holidays somewhere !! =P

2009-07-18T20:57:00.000+08:00

Just came back from a trip to Aussie. Meet some new friends, they are all very friendly. Sometimes, it is so amazed that when I know a new friend, I will and can always match or compare he or she to another old friend of mine. They remind me of someone I know, no matter from their appearrance or attitude. That's something unique about human being I guess.

These bunch of new friends I met, they are really great people. I never feel left out from their conversation, we talk and laugh over jokes all day long. I'm proud that I am a Malaysian that can speak so many languages. And, I think that's why I can mix easily with these people. I'm thinking to sign up into a language class, maybe Korean Language, just to expand my knowledge, and probably I will get to know more people then??!! hehe=P just a thought, why not, right?

Recently too, get to know one of my close friend, accept a white boy as her boyfriend. She used to struggle whether to accept him or not, but lately he is being sweet to her, so she said, " why not give him a chance? " I'm glad to hear that from you guys. Hope you will be together happily. I'm happy for you!=)

From what had happened lately too, I changed my perspective about certain thing. I used to think once chosen a person in your life, he or she should be the one you are looking for. And, you should be with him or her till the end of your life. That's why we have to consider to accept someone really carefully which is also time-consuming.

But, nowadays, unpredictable things might happen any day, any second, at anywhere. No one will know, and, I wish I will not know. Because if you dont know your future, you will always try and try to achieve something you are chasing after...

What I want to say here is, people, dont think too much of what someone will give you; but try to appreciate what he or she had given to you. And, be glad that he or she is around you. Dont take too long to accept someone as your girlfriend or boyfriend, because chance only come once, and, you will never know if he or she is the one who suit you until you be with them. There is no big deal of being dumped by someone you used to be with, but be glad that you had learnt to love someone, and happily be loved by someone.

Learnt from the past lesson, where you get it wrong, and why you were dumped or why you dumped your partner. Improve yourself from the experience so that you will never repeat the same mistake. That's the main thing that matter in life.

Keep it up, my friends! Those who have couple, Good Luck! Those who are single, keep it up!

Notice lately, more and more friends posted their personal performance on facebook. Quite surprised that actually most of my friends can sing and play the musical instructments so well. Keep it up, friends! And, you guys and girls rocks!!!!=) Thanks for sharing the happiness too...=P

Sudden Thought

2009-07-17T23:47:00.000+08:00

Life can be so short, unpredictable. You will never know what will happen next seconds. That's why I am here to tell everyone I know, I love you all and please forgive me if I did anything wrong before. Now, I know why people always say, we should give and take, forgive people easily, and there's always a second chance to help others to improve !

R.I.P My Friend='(

2009-07-17T23:09:00.000+08:00

Last Saturday, 11-7-2009, I got a bad news from a friend, saying that someone I knew passed away in an accident. I was terribly shocked! Speechless for a few seconds, but calm down after that.

At that moment, all I was thinking is just when is the last time I met her! I remembered, is at the hospital, when we were visiting Angeline. She too, left us after fighting against brain disease.

I still can remember vividly her characteristics. I knew her from primary school. Among my friends, she is the one that moved house the most oftenly. Maybe because of her family business, so they travel here and there, but at last they stay in KK.
I used to remember too, my late grandma like her a lot. She is a good girl, really close to elderly, no matters who they are, even they are not related to her. She is helpful too, always give a hand in her uncle's shop in town. I always gave her my spoilt watch, because her uncle can help me to repair it. She will sometimes go back to Jerteh, to assist her family business there too.
And, sometimes, she had to skip tuition just to take care of her younger brother.
She is perfect as a daughter, sister and friend.

We used to cycle to Nimar 500 back in secondary school. Me, her and Angie. That's like 8 years back to Form 1-2-3, before Angie moved to MARA Terengganu. Sometimes, we even chat while cycling, unbelievable right? She is a good listener, will listen to my problem and give me some opinion. Although she loves to nag sometimes, but I know, that's for my own good too.
After Form 5, we were separated by different interest of life, walking towards each other directions of life.

We used to perform at the temple in Chekok. She is really a great singer. Her favourite songs are 'Ting Hai', 'Wo Ke Yi Bao Ni Ma',both by A-Mei; 'Chiu Kap Tam Bui Bo', a Hokkien song. The crowd always cheers loudly for her fantastic voice.

I always think that she is really a 'poor' girl, since from what I know, she had a miserable life; she has to handle most of the household chores, she has too much responsibility, but I know she never give up, she never nag that she is unlucky. She even got a part time job when she was in college.

These years, she had few road accidents before she hit on this horrible one. She was really lucky before this, but why?? why?? She still leaving us at last...

I hope she will be an Angel in some part of the world. God bless her.

I will always remember you, as my best friend and sorry if I did anything wrong to you before this. R.I.P, my friend!

'Kinked' Lifestyle

2009-06-29T20:09:00.000+08:00

10 new things in my life:=)

1. Say 'hi' or 'hello' to who ever that you meet, 'see ya' before leaving.
2. Uni life is totally different from college's. Large lecture theatre and Uni compound.
3. Too many students in one lecture till you cant recall who sit beside you everyday.
4. 100% on self motivation n efforts to go to class everyday. No attendance taken except for tutorial.
5. Spend 15mins walking to uni everyday. Used to spend 25mins at the first 2 weeks. So 'hilly' and many traffic lights on the way there.
6. People here dressed up to Uni, totally different from what Malaysian did.
7. I wonder how the girls washing their 'spare parts' ? Throw everything into the washing machine? So lazy and yuckkss~!
8. I learnt to be 101% independent on myself..=P
9. Bread, Bread, Bread........only difference are white, wholemeal and the shapes.
10. I can't live without milk! -Coffee with milk, tea with milk, cereal with milk, pancake with milk, oat with milk......=P

星期五的笑话~！=P

2009-05-25T09:36:00.000+08:00

放学后，在跟H同学走路回家的路上，突然谈起午餐都会是吃些什么的。

我：平时是煮面啊，懒惰的话，就吃面包咯！可是，今天会煮好料，因为两天前在超市买了一些猪肉。而且, 平时没什么机会吃到猪肉啊！(一般都是和友族一起煮饭)。。

H同学：噢，很好啊！。。。讲起猪肉，让我想起一件很好笑的趣事！

我： (好奇的问) 什么事啊？

H同学一边笑，一边说：以前念国中的时候，有个马来同学喜欢上我的华族朋友。她为了拒绝他，竟然说她超爱吃猪肉的。所以，那马来同学才放弃追求她。。。

我： (惊讶) 炸到，你的朋友好厉害哦！竟然想到这一点！不错，不错。。。！！这理由用得着！

过了一会儿， H同学又问。。。

H同学：那你会用手吃饭吗？

我：当然会啊！家里都是用手吃的，而且有时会觉得吃起饭来特别好吃哦！

H同学：啊，是喔？看不出来你会喔！那你有用厕纸的吗？因为马来人都是用水洗的耶！

我：哎哟！当然会啦！不然怎样冲洗哦？你很好笑耶！还问到这么详细！！！

我们两人就这样。。。一边捧腹大笑，一边走到车站去。

A Good Day for cooking!

2009-05-23T10:40:00.000+08:00

23rd of May.

Breakfast: Steamed bread,spread with kaya and butter.

And,half-boiled eggs. Yeah!! After so many time of trials, I finally broke the eggs at the right timing..haha..~!

And, afternoon for lunch, I cooked 'Char Siew'.

At first, dunno how will it be cuz never cook this before.

真的是乱煮一餐。。。pour in the sauces by following my sense.

But, I quite happy with the outcome...

See..

This little plate is for Angela. She was impressed by my cooking..hehe..Thx!!=P

Gold Kiwi

2009-05-03T19:25:00.001+08:00

Yeah,
Tonight, I had my very first Kiwi in my life!!!

Bought this from Foodtown last night, since Jayne asked me to buy some, because it's its season at the moment. So so so nice, undescribe-able!!

It is not sour at all, taste sweet to me...I like it!!

Will buy again the next time I go for grocery shopping, it's actually quite cheap, only NZD$1.98/Kg.

I bought 2, so its just $0.57. Less than $0.30 per kiwi.

Before=)

After=P

Can't Tell...

2009-05-03T19:07:00.000+08:00

Among friends, there are always drama going on.
Sometimes, we just hope it never happened.
But without these, we would not be who we are now.

Everyone has his/her own thought, of everything he/she faced.
That's why conflict happens between humality.
People around might not agree with his/her idea.
Thus, we learnt how to 'give and take'.

But, he/she is being too meant, not appreciating at all,
Of what people are trying to express and save the situation!

And, I learnt too,
Never judge a book from its cover!
You will never know,
People's looks cant tell who they are!

I am gonna watch out,
Really keep an eye on everything...
Can't just being 'Lepak' and 'Cin-cai' all the times.
People might 'eat' me without my knowledge...

Oh man, it's so scary sometimes.!!!

May 1st,2009

2009-05-02T17:19:00.000+08:00

Angela told me that she talked to G-baby. And, she told him I was his Secret Admirer. He cant believe it!! HE said he like the ice cream part, although he has no clue about it at the beginning. hehe...=P

Thanks, Angie, for being my post-girl ! Or else, he would not know about it forever. =P
Because I dont think I will have 'yong3 qi4' to go and tell him face2face that, "hey, I am your Secret Admirer." Then the situation must be very the 'gang1 ga4'-est!=)

This is my Love Letter(last gift) to him before the reveal day...

You and I ,
We might be stranger, We might be close friends,
We might be so close to each other.

Its been for a week,
I ‘m admiring you like no one else,
I might give you some chocolates,
I might give you an ice-cream,
But I had given you something more precious,
That’s my H-E-A-R-T.

Times fly away so fast,
Just a blink of eyes,
You’re going to know who I am behind all these letters and gifts,
No matter what’s up next,
You will always be the sweet memories in my mind.
Someone special that I ever known.
These are all F-A-T-E,
That brings us together,
To know each other in this great game!
To be honest with you,
I had given you lots of ‘1st time’,
1st time of writing love letters,
1st time of admiring someone unknown,
1st time of giving out ‘MY HEART’,
1st time of having such romantic moments.

Who knows what will happen tomorrow,
Therefore I’m here to apologise,
If throughout this week I’ve done something too much for you,
And thanks for being my LOVE!
Good Night, Sweet Dream.

Whenever I read this poem sometimes, I just can't believe that this is my own writing.

Indeed, I can write!! =P

Its Like Snowing!!!

2009-04-09T09:45:00.000+08:00

HAHAHA...

So excited and happy to see the 'snow' in NEw Zealand...

Actually what we seen is hail ( ice for most of us ).

Today's lowest temperature is 11'C .

I came back from B-ball and was having toast.

Then , Illi and Aiman msn me to go to Fa's room for lunch, since as what we planned last night, we are going to Mohd. to get our HALAL meat and chicken.

After we finished having lunch, the weather turned wild and started to rain heavily.

We can see those pedestrians were walking in a hard way, and some have to keep away their umbrellas since the weather not allowing them to use them, unless they wanna buy new umbrellas..hehe=)

Then, I told them I need to ran back to my room to close my window.

When I was running back to 7th Floor, Fa's room, Shane asked me if I want to go out and see HAIL... At that time, I dunno what is he talking about. then, he asked me back if I know what is HAIL. I said I dunno, then he said, ICE. then I'm like, ya, I know that. So , two of us take the lift down to ground floor.

OH MY GOD!!! I was so so so so happy and excited to witness the nature gift.>!>!>!>!>

It was so amazing!...Its like we are having snow in winter. hehe..,,

Then I quickly ran up to see the rest, and ask them to come down....

AHAHHA...We set aside all the dirty dishes, ran down to see the HAIL.

SO HAPPY and Thrilled!!! We touched it , and played with it. HAHA...It was so small in sizes, and well-shaped in sphere. Like 'GULI' for me..hehe....feel like just eat it...

We took pictures, by Fa's camera. will upload it soon.

I just got these from the window on my floor. Not so clear, but enough to be seen, That's HAIL....=)

Devonport

2009-04-08T19:01:00.000+08:00

A trip to Devonport.

On tuesday, 1pm.We took the 2pm ferry to Devonport.

It took less than 30mins to reach there.

Devonport is such a nice place to be living in.

I can see lots of old buildings, and all of the bungalow are well-designed and unique.

They are all located on the hill. It's so amazing...!!

From what I noticed, this Island is like a place for New Zealand elderly, after they get older, they will shift from Auckland city to this fantastic place, settled down, and relax.

The life here is so peaceful, all you can see is people jogging; walking with their dogs, cats; and sitting at the benches while watching the sunset. The view, for most of us, are just an imaginary picture. But for me, I really saw it with my own eyes.

Other than that, you can see most of the shops are bookshop. They sell many type of books, from ancient books to modern books. Even Encyclopedia are available. Make me think of Harry Potter's spell booK....=)

And, we can see coffee shop all around too. People here, having tea or coffee, while chit-chatting, and some of them reading novel. Seems so calm, not chasing after anything at all!

For us, we took pictures and pictures... We can describe how we feel, but we can just say it was a best trip....I hope to have such trip again one day.

p/s: For more pictures, check out my Facebook! cheers=)

Been here for a month..

2009-04-05T23:37:00.000+08:00

Cant believe, so fast..I been here for a month!!!
Yet, happy, have fun, enjoy too much..
Never regret to choose Auckland as my destination for my tertiary programme.
Thanks to my mum and dad, for giving me such a great opportunity to fly here.
Love u all so much!!!=)

Just wanna let everyone know, I am fine here,as always I do, and I am great because I am Wanyen.HAha.....=)

So far so good~!

2009-03-26T17:53:00.000+08:00

Oh, havent blog for ages.
I got all the pictures of my dinner. But no time to upload..

Anyway, we had this "Secret Admirer" thingy going on in Huia. So much fun, so much mystery, so much guessing, and so much wondering!!...haha....

But it's so fast, we are going to reveal ourselves tomorrow night.
I havent even show out my 'Love' to him...
haha.. And, I did wondering who is the one admiring me for this whole week.

For mine, I gave him an ice-cream tonight. Just leave him a note outside his door, that " I leave my heart in the fridge,.... ", romantic enough, huh?? =)
I am old in all these things, cant think of any other great ideas to be a good secret admirer.

We had Inter-Res Basketball Match last night.
Shane asked me to join two days before the match. Then, I was thinking, why not, since I already passed up my first assignment in Uni---Stats, in the morning of the match.
So, I took part and contribute a score of 2. hehe...
Quite fun, and enjoy it too much! And, I booked the court for this coming SUNDAY! =)
We all had the motivation to play basketball, I think its because of the winning in the first match! We are going to have another game this coming Wednesday.

Hopefully I will finish my assignment by this weekend and join our Huia team again!!!...
I need to pass up 3 assignments for this coming week. Accounting on Monday, Economics essay on Thursday, and Management on Friday. It's so heavy!!...

Thanks, Angela!=)

2009-03-15T14:05:00.000+08:00

This morning, Angela and I went to The Warehouse , hope to get my printer there.

Jiani didnt join us because she came back late last night after she went for the Inter-Res Party.

But, seems like there arent much choices. So, we decided to go to Queen Street today for a look.

She said there are few shops selling printers at reasonable prices.

So, we went to Foodtown, to get some milk for Jiani and me, and bread too.

Then, we dropped by Huia to put all the stuff, and went out again after half an hour.

Today was a sunny day, I just put on a T-shirt and jeans like I am in Malaysia. =)

But still there's cold wind all along this sunny day.

We walked to Queen Street, today was Weekend, so, very crowded. And, we went almost to every computer and electronic shops, just to get the cheapest and better printer.

At last, I bought it from Bond&Bond, at $69.99.

Kind of cheap, as the inks --black, blue, yellow, and pink alone costs almost $90.00. But I got all of them together with my printer. =))

Thanks Angela for helping me carry it back all along from Queen Street to Huia.

You must be tired. I feel very sorry to you, seems like I am treating you as my assistants today..

Anyway, thanks a lot, and Happy to know you here...=)

We went to Mc Cafe, which is a cafe own by Mc Donald to have a drink before we come back.
It is located in a nice building...
My favourite Hot Choc!! Tasty!!!...yummy yummy, but the waitress forgot to give me marshmallow as the complement...It costs me only $3.90, for this big mug!!

And, no dinner tonight. SO, I just ate what left over from last night's dinner.

This were last night dinner.

Nasi Lemak.=)

Spicy prawn as complement.

Very spicy, make my appetite goes up!=P

This were yesterday's lunch.

The left-over daging kurma, fresh telur dadar (yummy yummy!), vege chicken specially cooked for me...^-^ Illi's Kopi-O also in this picture....Haha..

Today's programmes...

2009-03-12T18:58:00.000+08:00

We went to The Warehouse today, FINALLY!!!=)
I bought a water bucket and rice cooker!!...Mom should be proud of me now.=)
Nearly everytime, when we skype, she will ask if I already get the rice cooker!Now I got it.

And, I bought this because it was on sale, and I was hungry that time. Dont know why I will buy junk food. Its just so not me!.....
Anyway, it taste really nice...Very cheessy..I 'm kinda like it.=P
This is our dinner for tonight. Cooked it around 9pm. But its really tasty and yummy...

Black pepper chicken with mushroom soup...actually should be dried, but nvm, it is still delicious!

Daging Kurma, I cant have this because I dont eat beef, but all of them said it's fantastic!
AFter that, I had ice-cream at Angela 's place. She said her aunt gave her 10 packs of them, and it just cost $5. I tried it, and fly into the sky. SO yummy!!!..The ice-cream is so milky and soft structure make it just melt on ur tongue!.,.

The weather is getting cold.

Tonight I cooked dinner on my own.

Decided just to cook vege soup, because I had too much toast this morning and for lunch as well.

It doesnt look very delicious, but its really full and warm enough for the weather of today.

And, I found someone that cant give an exact answer for this Question like I do.

" Why do you pick New Zealand for your tertiary studies? "

He asked me back this Question, and I laughed and gave him a 'lame' answer,

" New Zealand is a beautiful country! " ....Actually this is true. May be the answer as well...=P

He is a Malaysian too but I forgot to ask him what course is he pursuing now..

Anyway, talk to mom again, and,the kids just come back from tuition. Woo haa haa...so noisy over the webcam. Too excited I guess...=O

After dinner, Angela asked me and Jiani to go for a walk since she feel like eating Ice-cream and Jiani had too much dinner again..hehe...

But as we just step out the road, its drizzling!! Haiz...so we cancelled our plan, guai guai de get back to our hostel...What a poor day!

But once I get into my room and looked out the window, Huh....the rain stopped!!

Haiz...so angry yet so annoying with the tremendous 'moody' weather ....

Angela came again later on to ask if we wanna go to have steamboat for Friday's dinner. Then, I agreed and Jiani too..Hopefully that day will be a great day....(no rain, please!)

gtg to sleep....its almost 12am here. Goodnight...=)

I had conference in Skype with mom, dajie,2jie,3jie,4jie, Ming and Pin late evening. Its almost 10pm here,and, I couldnt talk longer with them since I have class earlier tomorrow morning .

Tonight, I had dinner with my Malaysian friends.

In the kitchen, Elly and Sha.

My turn to pose. See, Aiman is the cook actually!=P

Notice two Kelantanese girls, my floormates as well, is frying 'keropok' ..huh=( missed it!

Our luxury dinner:Ayam kicap, Vege Soup, Ikan Masak Pedas

Over dinner, we were talking about what we can and used to eat back at home, and, now we are having dinner here, far far away from home.

Then they too, were pouring out the stories of their personal life. Some said they wanna get married earlier, some don't. So funny.=)

I just noticed that my writing skills on blogs is getting weaker. When I looked at those blog I wrote, I still feel that something is not enough there,something missing. Just cant find what is that!

Fantastic First Weekend in NZ

Saturday 7th Mac 09

I ate Korean noodles as breakfast +lunch.

Then, do some laundry, FINALLY! But still suffering because I havent get a chance to buy a pail to wash my clothes, what I am using now is just a plastic bag!..I just cant imagine how the other girls using garbage bin they have in their room to be the substitution! That's so yuck! =S

Then, around 2pm, we walked down to Queen Street, waiting for a Musical Event.

Heard about this from Fa, a Malaysian girl. She told me its fun and invited me to join them. She called it Sing Sing and such a cute nouns!

We went there quite early, so Shogi, a Seremban boy, bring me and my friend, Jia Ni from FuZhou,China around. We walked till the end of Queen Street,and saw a huge ship. Yes, we are at the Auckland Harbour. And, we also get to see where is BriftonMart, which is like our KL Sentral, Transportation Centre. Then, Shogi show us the way to the Sky Tower too. And, he did ask me if I ever thought of Sky Dive from that Tower. I said, there's a possibility for me to do it! Maybe before I go back to Malaysia!

After that, we walked back to the event. It starts at 4pm.

Basically this whole event was really fun, interesting and you can only get to see it in New Zealand. They have Theatre, Music, Dance and Visual Arts in their list of performance. I was really excited when I saw all these. And, the best part is, you can see people(the crowd) can just simply stand up and just dance freely following the music, really dont care about anything around them! that's cooL!

And to be Honest, even myself, in small action, shake my shoulder along with the wonderful music..=)

This is the performance. The dancers just use their bare hands and clap on their legs, their chest, and sing on their own tones.

Musicians with the traditional flutes...

We leave earlier, because its getting late and darker.
Tonight too, we suppose to have TOGA PARTY. But since we come back late from Sing Sing, so we had to skip that. Anyway, I still prefer SingSing. To watch the culture and art of different oceanic homelands- Papua New Guinea, Pasific Islands,New Zealand, Australia,and etc.

Cooked spaghetti tonight for dinner.

Sunday 8th Mac 09

I woke up at 9am today.

I suppose to join the Huia group for Zoo Trip, but when I think about the budget, its so costly!!=(
Plus, I need to do some shopping for food, so all of us, decided to continue sleeping, and go to Foodtown this late afternoon.

We went around 2pm and come back at 4.30pm.

We stopped by an Asian Market that we just discovered, named T MARK. If I am not mistaken, they have their own website. We checked out the food there, they were really cheap! But since we all are carrying things from Foodtown, and its so heavy, so we just can have a look at it, and just make a promise to come back here next time!! I saw a lot of Chinese food---fishball, tang yuan, zhong zhi, shui jiao, etc.....even sunlight(the dishwasher)was available there!!

We are really suffering, carrying the food we bought all from Foodtown back to Huia. I have to like take a few break halfway. Stop and 'rest' my hand. OMg!!
Next time I really should bring along my hand-luggage and put everything I bought into it, then just drag to anywhere I go before I get home. That's much more easieR!=)

Late evening, we had floor meeting. And, we ordered Domino Pizza. Each of us pay out $5.
Then, we watched 'Sin City'.

That's how I spend my first weekend.
All the way back from Foodtown, my friends keep saying we should go here and there, and I said," Dont worry, We still have a lot of weekend to spend together! "

Haha....That sounds like we are really going to have fun and more fun on the coming weekends.

Summary of Week 1

2009-03-06T12:59:00.000+08:00

Here I am, in Auckland, NZ for almost a week.

Sunday 1st Mac 09

Woke up at 10am. Thought of wanted to go and meet the Residence Assistance(RA) of my floor since I dont know anyone here. So, I knocked on his room door, but no response. Then, I saw someone who looked like a Malaysian girl. I asked her about him. She said she saw him at the ground floor. She is helpful. She brings me to meet him.
I didnt expect to see actually he is one of the students, I thought he/she is a Lecturer or someone older, working in the Uni. Anyway, he is a nice and friendly person. And, he is a Malaysian too. (that should be an important point to my parent, I guess) =)
I asked him where can I get my daily needs. So, he said, his friends going out to get something from the stores too, so I can take a ride from them. He arrange the time for me, and, I went. It's in the town, which is Foodtown in Newmarket. I got my t/brush, t/paste, detergent, etc....and,of course Muffins.
We come back to Huia. And, one of them asked if I am interested in joining them to the picnic in Domain, which is one of the O-week activities. So, I agreed. We walked there. It was really crowded. The local people were having 'Teddy Bear Day" or something like that, because you can see there's a huge teddy bear on the middle of the field. Families and kids...omg!So cute! We walked on the grass...really big area! And, searching for a group of Huia members. But we didnt meet any of them. Information failure happenned.
So, we decided to just forget about the others, 4 of us, just ate the drinks and chips we have, and, landing under a shady trees. We were too, rolling and lying down on the greeny grass. Racing on the slope to see who rolls faster. Haha...1st time experience, like we were in the Indian movies!!
Evening, Bowling and Pool Night. Fun and interesting. Get to know more people from Malaysia. They are all kind and friendly people. Had hot choc on the way back to Huia, hot drink under cold weather. Fantastic!

Monday 2nd Mac 09

Wake up at 7am. Walked to University of Auckland for the first time. I kept asking people on the way, so that I am in the right direction. On my way there, I can see that my University is really located on a huge and wide area. And, it is really a city campus. Different faculty has different buildings, and its everywhere along the Symonds Street.
I'm going to the International office to check my enrolment, because I faced problem when I was enrolling for my class last night.
Finally , I found it and the office open only at 9am. It was 8.15am at that moment. So,I walked around and found a cafe. Had hot choc. And, then after proceeding everything. I am attending class at 2pm. First class is Management class.
I saw someone familiar before I go for my class. OMG!!! My classmate from secondary school, Hani! So excited, and I never expect to see anyone I know from home! Luckily she still remembered me. The best part is, after we exchange our phone number, she mentioned to me that she is staying at the same building as I did. wow!
