The Things We Take For Granted

Baru-baru ni, terjadi satu insiden dalam lembaran hidupku yang membuat aku terdiam sejenak sebelum berupaya melafazkan kata-kata syukur. (perghh, skema tak ayat ini? =P) I was thinking, how different my life would have been if one of the many things that have been in my life, was not there to begin with? So, bear with me y'all. I was driving to my bro's home in Balakong, and fuel is running low so being the skema (adik-adik, skema ni perkataan bahasa Malaysia, jadinya jangan guna perkataan ini dalam karangan bahasa Inggeris ya) person I am, I made a stop at the Shell gas station next to the Nouvelle Hotel, the one located alongside the PLUS highway. All done, I started my engine. Hmmm, just some cranking sounds. Let's try again. Okay, one more time. "Repeat steps 3 more times." Aaaaand, no more sound made when I turned they key. Couldn't be the battery la. I just changed it last Raya 2013, which in case you don't remember when was it, it was in Aug...

Does and Is

Selalunya, ramai yang terkeliru antara "does/do" dan "is/am/are". I am no language teacher but I am just sharing my way of learning this back in school, and how not to get these two confused. Eh, tercampur bahasa pulak =___=" (Mula-mula sekali, nak jelaskan yang ni bukan dalam masa lalu (past), ni masa sekarang jadi kita guna yang present tense. Bahasa inggeris, korea, jepun dan ada sesetengah bahasa lagi mungkin, ada gaya bahasa macam ni. Kalau dalam bahasa Malaysia, kita takde gaya macam ni. Dalam penggunaan ayat nak menerangkan sesuatu pada masa yang lalu, kita menggunakan "telah", "sudah", "dah","masa lalu". Dalam penggunaan bahasa Malaysia tiada kata kerja (verb) yang ditukar semata-mata nak menyampaikan bahawa perkara ni dah berlaku. Okay, dah terlajak guee... ) Pada situasi apakah boleh guna "does", "is" dengan betul? Okay, ni aku punya stail. "Does/Do" ni merujuk kepada perbu...

Thursday - Cool Pics Of The Day

Or is it Funny and Cool Pic Of The Day? Because, a cool pic isn't necessarily a funny pic. And a funny pic isn't necessarily a cool pic. It can be quite nasty. =P I always thought that it is okay to take the hotel's soap, shower gel and shampoo. And I thought all Malaysians do it. Even the PM. =P LOL So, I should Laugh Out Loud when I see someone drowning? Maybe they should make the font for 'Call 911' bigger! I have to say I hate zombies. Whenever I watch The Evil Dead, Resident Evil, I feel like bashing them. But good things do come out from these zombies. For all you know, the capitalists might have adopted these unique attributes of zombies. Currently listening to old songs; Dewa (not Dewa 19) Backstreet Boys, Michael Learns To Rock and Scorpion. I guess I miss the old time. Hahahah

Simply Tired

I woke up early this morning, with the intention of finishing my only assignment for this year. Only to find myself sleeping again and woke up at 1 pm, and after my grocery shopping and early dinner late lunch around 5 pm, I fell asleep again and woke up at 8.45 for Maghrib gajah =_=" Such is the effect of playing basketball, full court for the first time in 5 months.. My body is still aching all over... but I am now doing my assignment. Hooray!! These two photos were taken in 2007 second semester when the Mugsu Basketball Club was founded by Lambert Zhang, a fellow basketballer and a friend I met here in Monash Gippsland.

Flag Ceremony Dinner

Well, it's an annual event. Gonna update you guys more on this. I don't think I have a photo of me at Flag Ceremony Dinner 2007. In that year, I got to carry the flag of Malaysia! Oh yeah!! I didn't go in 2008 but last year I did. It was the best so far. I'm not sure about this year. Oh, it is called the Flag Ceremony as international students got to carry the flags of their respective countries. The fun part about this event is that, sometimes the International Student Support Unit can't find students from certain countries like Thailand, Myanmar, so other international students who are from Malaysia or Singapore, can volunteer themselves to carry those flags. Hahahaha. And this time, me, Nabil and Rasyid will be carrying Myanmar, Thailand and Brunei respectively. Hope it will be a bit fun for me. This was last year. Taken by Amalina Sujak.

Not Registered Yet!

Oh well, I thought I have been registered in MRS database and could have internet access. But apparently not!! ARGHHH!!! I didn't go through all these stages. Because now I am in Semun's room, connected to his wireless connection!! WAAHAHAHAHHA!!! Don't get mad, get creative =P

Moving In

I finally got a place in West residence. It feels good to be back to West. South is alright, just that I need a change of environment, get to know other people and not stuck with the same people. Good thing my house is just next to Pam's. =) All of my housemates are first year Med students, Australian Asians (got such terms? LOL). So far, they are all friendly. I did say, "Sorry to dissapoint you guys" cause they thought I am a Med student as well. Hahahaha. For now I am hanging out at the Malay guys' place. Smell of tomyam is making me hungry now.. tomyam anyone? Oh well, I haven't been eating properly so I guess something soupy can do something with my appetite. =P hehehehehe

Fooyoh!!!

Just dropped by at my former company's online magazine - Fooyoh! . Can't believe I was there, working for a month. It was really a good experience. I think I wanna talk about it, just a bit. Hahahah =P There were 8 of us at the time when I worked at the company. What we do; publish articles online on Fooyoh.com which has other sister sites such as geekapolis, iamchiq, geraldinho, menknowpause. It has pretty much everything in it. Hi-tech gadgets, funny clips, funny pics, tips, advices, short articles, reviews on movies, songs, artists, architectural design, blabla. I did well on my first day. But it seems that I couldn't do better than first day, so I was quite struggling. Only when I got to do stuffs about football and sports like basketball, I found myself quite comfortable doing the jobs. Nevertheless, my colleagues who were my seniors there were very helpful and friendly. Oh yeah, the boss is a Korean! =P I am really grateful that I got this internship for a month as I...

Change of Mood

I guess I should stop thinking of myself lowly. Thanks to Bii, friends; Pam, Xinyi, Semun, Greenie, Alva and the Malay families here who have been supportive. I know what I did was really terrible but thanks for not treating me coldly. Appreciate that. I met Kak Ja & Fam and Abang Zainal & Fam for the first time this year yesterday. Had lunch at KFC and later on dinner there. Me and Nabil played some tennis too. Was pretty tiring since hadn't played tennis for quite some time. And around 2pm today I went to West court for basketball. Was a good idea to play basketball. Got to meet up with the other basketballers; Jackie, Alfred, Jude, and Ash. After that I went to South 3, where Semun is staying to pass him his cigarette. LOL And I just hanged out at the comp lab until 6.30pm since Pam wanted to make me dinner. So around 6.40 or so, me, Pam and her housemate Jansen, had dinner together. She made her famous vegetarian noodle. As always, it was awesome. Met two Malaysians in ...

le Tour de Langkawi

People waiting by the road side. And I joined them! Hahaha Salam and greeting people After many many years, I finally got to watch le Tour de Langkawi live at Kerteh. The last time I watched those cyclists in action was 11 years ago??? Waaa... You know the riders LOL are not far if you see the convoys; security car, police patrol, and air unit. Even before waiting for them by the road side, I had been checking their current location at the official website of Le Tour de Langkawi . I remember picking up my brother from school at 11.30 am because he had to change for his basketball tournament. Some of the students were already waiting! I mean, at that time I checked they were still somewhere in Bukit Besi, which is like an hour or two away from Kerteh? The teachers should have done better, not wasting the students' time waiting for almost 2 hours. They were so fast! I was lucky to bring my camera along! There was a commotion and there I saw this one guy got problem with the rear tyr...

Basketball Tournament MSSD Kemaman

On Tuesday, I went to watch my brother's first basketball match. Wanna see how big he is? Yeah, that big. His school, Sekolah Menengah Kebangsaan Rantau was up against S.M.K.Bukit Mentok, a newcomer to the scene according to my bro's senior, Farid. The big guy got himself free shots after being fouled, but missed them both. Not by much, almost in. Sekolah Rantau aka SRP got the skills, and experience as some of the players have been playing for a long time with other schools. The only things they were lacking on that day were athleticism, stamina, strategy and a leader in the court. True, they have this one guy in the team who manages everything; time table of the match, recruiting new members, but on the court that day, he, not even once gave any instructions to his teammate. My bro was the center but he just started playing at his school last year. All this while, he had been practicing shooting at home. Clearly he has no leadership yet, he's still new and green. Not hav...

Thursday - Awesome/Funny/Cool Pics Day =P

I have decided that Thursday will be the day for any great, appealing, funny pics. At least these pics can get you laugh, think, ponder,wonder, and maybe give you nothing. The point is, you got something to do instead of letting the whole world know via Facebook that you're dead bored! How cool is that? If I were still a boy, I would kill this girl for that robot suit!!! =P Imagine if Najib did that! Wait, he has real moustache so he doesn't need to do that. Darth Vader is so not cool if you ask me now.. This is why having your parents, especially your mom on facebook is not really a good idea. It's bad, I tell you. LOL [ The Daily What ]

Youthsays.com

I have been a member since...last year? Sometime in April 2009? Anyway, it's a good platform to understand other Malaysian youths. Apparently there are many youths out there trying to make a difference in Malaysia, to Malaysia. Want to see the better Malaysia in the future. By better, we don't really mean technology, by being richer. Not only that. We want Malaysians to have great attitude, personalities. Kata Melayunya, baik akhlak. Regardless of religion, race, skin colour, status, how much money you have. Things like budi bahasa, personal and public hygiene, cleanliness, badminton thomas cup hehehhe =P What I'm saying is, I Love Malaysia my country, and I want to see Malaysia to be a better place for all Malaysians. And so that we will feel homesick despite how cool Melbourne is, how good the public transport is oversea. So, to all Malaysian youths out there, if you want to get your voice heard, want to know what others are thinking, planning, why not give Youthsays a g...

As Gruesome As It Can Be!

Those who think football is just a sport played for 22 disabled men fighting for one ball should think about that again. It's not a sport for those not mentally prepared actually. It is a gruesome, gore, and extreme sport!! Okay, maybe I exaggerate a bit =P Latest freak accident! Young Gunner Ramsey got his leg broken after being tackled down by Stoke City's Shawcross. Man, this just reminds me of how Michael Owen, Djibril Cisse, Eduardo, and Diaby got their legs broken too! Scary Lucky I wasn't that active in football last time in high school. The only accident I ever got myself into while playing football during P.E lesson was knocked down by a freakingly fast ball launched by my friend. The impact was so hard I instantly dropped down, lying on the pitch. Felt like a freaking pin knocked down by a bowling ball. And I was there for a few seconds before I was back on my feet. The thing is, I didn't feel any pain. Just, nothing. hahahaha =P [ BBC Sports ]

Massacre!! Okay, that's a bit exaggerating

I was watching some Malay cerekarama on TV3 with my family when Adik ran all the way from his room "Tengok bola, tengok bola!" We changed to ESPN, and it was then I saw, Chelsea was trailing 1-2, before Tevez made full use of the penalty kick to give his club 2 goals lead. Cool! The match ended, 4-2, with Chelsea left with 9 players when the ref blew the whistle. NICE!! My hope for this season, not to see Chelsea win the league title!! The girlfriend told me about Terry-Bridge-no-handshake incident before the match kicked off. Am looking for a replay of that scene!

Stop Global Warming, Snowman Says

Yeah, am not kidding you. Even snowman is into this street protest stuff nowadays. The Huffington Post More funny stuff if you have the time to watch this. You know, how people are kinda freaked out with robots becoming more and more realistic, with the AI improved. Some people are just freaking scared that the "robot apocalypse" will happen one day when people depend too much on robots. Looks like this cat feels pretty much threatened by this robotic arm. Let's see who would win this face-off.
