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?
