The Ending & The Beginning

With the Christmas gone, few days on, there will be a new year to look to, another beginning and another ending. There ends 2009, and comes 2010. And with that also comes my new semester. It's time to concentrate back to my studies-with the professional level papers underway, it's really time to get serious, and hopefully, I do not repeat whatsoever mistake I've done this year.

Christmas had been good this year, maybe not the best but certainly an enjoyable one to me. (Hope you guys did too..) I had a great movie, basketball games with my neighbourhood pals (my first since I injured my ankle) and I even got a Christmas gift-a watch! Okay, it's not really a Christmas gift, just a gift I received during Christmas, or maybe it is, arghh.. whatever it is.

It had been some time since I felt satisfied after watching a show. And Sherlock really did the job. I've been a fan of the book for a while now, and I made no secret that it would be one of the shows that's on my 'must-watch' list. And as usual, I did not put much expectation, learning from the past that doing so will do me no good, what with those recent movies that did badly to really capture my attention. But it turns out great! Well, at least it did for me, if not for you. I'll be waiting for the sequel, hopefully it'll be good-the battle between Sherlock and Professor Moriarty.

And buffet! Oh, I'm really getting tired of these. I've been going for quite a few of those recently, and I certainly think it'll take me some time before I set foot in one again! It's pretty uncomfortable to eat too much just so that it's worth it, or maybe I'm just getting a bit old for that. (haha..)

Well, well, well.. Looking back at 2009, it's been an eventful year after all, even if it had not been so productive in terms of my studies. Some new experience, new friends, new knowledge, some changes- well,not bad after all. So then, for the new year, I wonder...

How will it be like?

How different will it be from the previous ones that had left me?

What new things will I acquire and learn for the coming year?

How much change would take place?

And how different will I be?

Well, time will tell...

Merry X'mas!

It's Chhrrriiiiissssstttmmaaaaaaaaasssss!!!

Merry X'mas folks! 25 December it is! And it's also a public holiday, which means a whole free day for me! No work, no nothing. By the time this post is posted up, I should be somewhere in the cinema in 1U watching Sherlock Holmes. =D

I've been working mostly during my holidays. My last two days of work was mostly in Wangsa Walk at Wangsa Maju where my aunt just opened a new bowling centre. Looks great from my point of view, though she thinks there is still plenty of areas to be improved. I was sent there to help around, though I actually don't really know what I really need to do. This just show how lacking I am in terms of experience. So ended up just looking around most of the time.

On the first of my 2 days there, I followed my aunt's car there, driven by her personal driver of course. Then while on the way back to the car at the main entrance of the shopping complex, I just couldn't help feeling a bit smug, with the people staring at me and my aunt, going into the back seat of the car, you know, like you're an important or rich person. Wow! First time I felt like that actually. XD

Enough about work. So it's Christmas! What are you gonna fill up your day with? Whatever it is, I hope you have a great time out there! Time flies and the day will soon be gone. Let's cherish it while it's here.

Hmmm...

Can't think of anything to post about at the moment.

...

Wait! I think I hear something!

*Prick up my ears*

*Jingle~ Jingle~*

*Hoof Sounds*

O.O

Ho ho ho... MERRY X'MAS!!

Christmas is in The Air!

Christmas decorations started going up in lots of places.

Christmas songs being played more and more frequently on the radio.

Bloggers start posting about Christmas.

And 25th of December is just around the corner.

Somehow I feel excited about this coming Christmas, although Christmas has never been a special day to me, as my family and I do not actually celebrate it. I wonder what am I excited about, and how Christmas will be like this year.

Hmmm.....

While out at Mid Valley today, I saw a number of people, especially westerners getting gifts, hands loaded with bags of goods they just bought. And the Christmas trees standing tall, with plenty of nice decorations, lots of people were taking a picture with them as background. Plus I think I did heard some 'jingle' sound coming from somewhere. Although I didn't exactly see the Santa. 

The mall is just so damn packed today, what with year end sales and school holidays going on and Christmas around the corner that made me kinda regretted going there. Earlier on, I was soaked all over from the rain as I ran to my college, going there to register my next semester courses. And the receptionist asked me, "You just took a bath, is it?". Argh! Why must it rained that time!

So when I arrived at Mid Valley, I wasn't really in the best of my mood. It was hard to look around, and the slow traffic, don't really improve my mood. But still, I'm glad I went. And I couldn't getting the 'Christmas' feeling when I'm there. The decoration, the songs, the noisy atmosphere.. Well, it might as well be Christmas today!

So there, I remembered something from the Enid Blyton's books I used to read-that you need to be a good boy/girl if you want to get a gift from Santa Claus.

Now now, I think I have been a 'very' good child this year, haven't I? So would you kindly give me a very good present for Christmas, Santa? XD

And have you been good yourself?

F-R-E-E-D-O-M

Exam is over! Yeah! that's like 'Finally!'. I'm not gonna say I did well for my papers but I can worry about that when February comes. So now what should I do?

Out for a movie? Not much nice movies around, or should I say none of the movies are what I feel like watching now..

Basketball game! Sadly, my ankle is still kinda swollen. It won't be fun not to play at the maximum.

How about a book? Any nice suggestions? Some nice fiction, romance, adventure, thriller,... will do. Went to MPH to look around but not sure what to get.

Watch anime. Well, that's what I'm doing nowadays. And I'm running out of supply soon.

Work...that's a sure to! Gotta earn some money now that it's holidays.

What else is there......

Hmmm...

Well, just gotta think something out myself. Two weeks of free days ahead of me. And it's gonna be Christmas and then New Year soon! Time flies and 2010 is already approaching. It felt like yesterday I was celebrating the coming of 2009 earlier this year at the Curve. Well, well, well... Time to enjoy! =D

I've Reached!

A man checked into a hotel. There was a computer in his room, so he decided to send an e-mail to his wife.

However, he accidentally typed a wrong e-mail address, and without realizing his error, he sent the e-mail.

Meanwhile.....Somewhere in Houston , a widow had just returned from her husband's funeral.

The widow decided to check her e-mail, expecting condolence messages from relatives and friends.

After reading the first message, she fainted. The widow's son rushed into the room, found his mother on the floor, and saw the computer screen which read:

To: My Loving Wife
Subject: I've reached
Date: 16 Mar 2008
I know you're surprised to hear from me. They have computers here, and we are allowed to send e-mails to loved ones.
I've just reached and have been checked in.
I see that everything has been prepared for your arrival tomorrow.
Looking forward to seeing you TOMORROW!

Happy 21st, Kime!

Happy 21st birthday, Kin Meng!!

Are you reading this? Maybe not! Who cares, I'm gonna see you at your party tonight anyway. Hope it will be a great 21st for you! =)

Ouch! That Really Hurts!

He shot it. A 3 pointer.But No-it didn't go in.

Then I jumped, trying to get the rebound but the opposite team member got it first.

I landed. Took a step forward with my right foot. And then..

Ouch!!!

That really hurts! And seconds later, I was on the floor, clutching my ankle.

Time-out!

And pain it is! It has never hurt like that before. Most of the time I got away with a few seconds of pain and numbness, and then it'll be okay. But not this time. It took me minutes to finally be able to run around a bit, using my left leg more than my right, and barely able to jump.

My right ankle is now swollen-displaying a big lump.And a really bad one it is. I could barely walk properly now. Limping more like most of the time. Shifting more burden to my left leg.

Just hope it will get better soon. Wouldn't want to get stuck at home with a bad ankle for long. I need more time for sports...

Frustration...

What a frustrating day it is! Seriously think I'm gonna fail my F9 paper. Damn! Well, I guess I only had myself to blame. Last minute studies-which is fast becoming a norm for me, lazy to do questions, and I guess I put too much effort in my audit paper when actually it's this paper I should be worrying. Sigh.. Now, I'm facing the prospect of re-sitting for this paper, a high probability in fact, if not definite.

Really frustrated as nothing registers in my head as I face the question paper. What with the traffic jam, and the stomach pain before the exam did not help either. All thanks to myself taking too much bananas in a single day, which is really driving me banana now!

I'm frustrated with the lack of change in my habit! If only I prepare myself earlier, well, that's a really BIG if!

Frustrated with my lack of determination..

Lack of self-discipline..

Lack of control..

And the list goes on.....

This really can't goes on to be like this. No, it must not! But how the heck do I start it! And any best way to maintain it once the momentum gets going? Oh man, this is really frustrating! How I wish I'm stronger...

It's My War!

The war cry sounds, the battlefield all set for the bloodiest war of the year, though still incomplete, as it awaits for the 'heroes' to step on it, and the Outcome-shall be known in approximately 2 months time.

It's officially my war-after about 5 months of don't-know-what-I-did, the dreaded moment is finally here.

Countdown-1 day left!

And then to UCSI I go, for 3 days, 3 hours and 15 minutes each, battling with myself, trying to suck out whatever there is in my brain and imprint them on the important documents that they call 'answers booklets'.

Looks simple, sounds simple, but yet a quest that I wonder what will become of me by the end of the 3 days.

"I Will Survive!". "I Will Win The War!!!".

"I definitely WILL!", I told myself. A little help from the Lady Luck will be sincerely welcomed..

Hmmm...

So before I proceed to the all important war, I thank those who wishes me..

And to all my brothers and sisters out there, may luck be on your side too! All the best in your own war!

So what are they waiting for? Bring on the war NOW!!!

One Week..

It's December the 1st! Meaning that my exams is next week. Holy shit! Time pass so fast, and my revision is anything BUT done! Sigh.... I'm dreading about the day when my results comes out. This really doesn't look good. No, it is really really BAD! Arghhhhh... It has been a very bad semester for my studies. I barely had anything on my head now-anything about f7,8 and 9 to be exact! Just can't feel that my brain had absorbed anything that I've been reading in the past 5 months. Sigh.. Suddenly feels that the target that I've set myself earlier in the semester is really IMpossible! Well, time to get off. Back to more notes~~
