Time for December

Right... I'm back for my once-a-month update... It's the last month of the year 2010... How time flies.. during the beginning of this year, I was worrying about being jobless after graduation.. It seems like... Ok.. It's kinda long ago... just it doesn't seem like 11 months ago.. maybe like 6 months?? it feels like it though.. oo.. cut the crap~~ in a nutshell, i'm just in denial in the aging process...

December is suppose to be the cold month with warms hearts... as Christmas is near.. jingle bells, snowflakes, feasts, get-together and presents!!!! I never really celebrated Christmas... I'll usually tag along when my friends are celebrating... never really had to mood on my own.. So, what's going on this year?? I'm not that sure yet... hopefully, it'll be fun... even if it involves staying at home watching TV programmes aired by the channel in line with the festive season.. there can still be fun..

This marks almost the end of the year 2010... and to summarise what have i done during the whole year... you can find those events in my previous posts... well.. I never post anything that I wouldn't wanna share.. so feel free to browse around for the history of my life... hmm.. this sounds good.. I should definitely add it in my profile...
Let's see... I had my very last semester in university... sit for my very last final exam (hopefully it's my last..).. then I started work on the very next week after my finals.. guessing that i'm one of the earliest people to start working in my batch... had my moments during that time.. it was fun.. ups and downs... but it's a great experience in my life.. had a bunch of new friends along the way... then i came to the part where i had some, lose some, had it again and lost it without even knowing it... Oh, not forgetting my trip to Taiwan... I haven't been updating about it here.. the delay was due to the unorganised photos... Now i have them organised.. so i guess it'll be up sooner or later.. and then.. a round of roller coaster ride emotionally.. i landed on to my current job.. which I am adapting pretty well and quite happy with what i have..
these are the bigger stuff happening about me throughout the year.. for other smaller stuff.. i might have forgotten them already.. i myself need to check back my posts...

alright... I guess i'm done for now... hopefully to get another post up again before the year ends..

Baby.. baby.. baby Oooh~~~ (I don't wanna grow up)

When I say grow up, I mean my age... It's a pain to the number increases every year marking how long have I exist here... However, I wouldn't wanna turn back time or something, I'm not thrilled about going back to my school days... I just don't want the numbers of my age to add, it can stay the way as it is now.. I'm very happy with it..

I have always want to scram off school exams and assignments to step into the working world... earning my own pay cheque.. which is why I always want my study years to be short as possible.. which explains my devastation when i screwed up my PTS... i skipped form 6, a-levels and any other pre U programmes that require more than 1 year..

Now I have started working, I am one of the youngest.... as like I have mentioned that my university years is shorter than the typical STPM route which most of my colleagues took.. I am currently the youngest in my team which I'm enjoying... knowing that i have exceeded certain expectations where people would usually judge someone who have just graduated fresh out of university with zero experience in the society... Although I don't have much experience, being in the production field has really speed things up for me.. I have seen all kinds of people and been at work at all hours you can find on the clock... I will grow old in super speed if i stayed in production full time for another 2 years...

So, I'm really enjoying the attention as the youngest, i guess that's because i have been the eldest in the family ever since I was born, being the youngest seem like a new experience, something that i hardly get the chance to try... For my next birthday, i'll wish that my age will stop increasing and the aging process will be irrelevant in my life... weee...

I feel old everytime somebody tell me his/her age that is younger than me... that includes the time when I was a volunteer at the Youth 10 Festival where everybody are schooling kids, mostly in university or just started pre-U.. i was the only one graduated.. I felt old and separated from the group even though some of us were like a year or two apart...

maybe, being young is just an excuse for my kiddy and childish behaviour like constantly hugging my teddy bear or other plushies on my desk during work... And being super happy when a colleague who is going for maternity leave offer me to adopt her Jack-Jack for 3 months.. I was super thrilled for the whole day...



Guess which is mine...




With a guest around... the others will certainly grab the chance to take photos.. especially when it looks exactly like Mo JackJackJack...









We call him Guest Jack..


Aren't they cute??

WK

My summary of my days in Wolters Kluwer.. 10 stuffs about them~~

*I'm kinda addicted to this 10 points thing.. i think its a great way to keep me writing.. hehe..

Let's move on with it....

1. I have a big cubicle, a U-shape desk with 3 bears(mine); 2 pencil holder with 4 pens, stick on notes, 2 pencils, liquid paper, 4 highlighters, a ruler; a 3-tier tray, a pc, a file with my training notes; a few binders and books... and i'm very happy with it.. a lot of space.. hehe..

2. I have a nice team, with great team mates around to guide me and an understanding team leader (when I was so stressed out with the indexer.. she said to transfer him/her to my team leader, she'll help me handle him/her.. nice!!)

3. Nice and funny colleagues around.. and go to lunch with... although I'm the youngest but there's no gap.. so i guess i'll have to admit that i have an old heart... Sigh~~

4. a great pantry, with unlimited supply of coffee, teh tarik, hot chocolate... hehe.. and biscuits for snacks.. and it's just opposite my cubicle.. just a few steps away.. weeee...

5. my office is situated in a very quiet place in cyberjaya.. super quiet!! same applies to the environment in the office.. It's like a library... the sounds you hear are tapping on the keyboard, footsteps, the coffee machine, the water dispenser and random whispers..

6. I have started on my products.. so far ok but i still need to refer to notes and seniors...

7. we had fun and happening celebrations... Hari raya open house (team members pot-luck and brought food.. we eat and play games, our team manage to win rm100 in the charade!!) Deepowraya celebration (there were sketches imitating petronas ads, food!! the caterer was great! yummylicious!! and a kolam competition among teams.. my first time doing a Kolam.. it's very hard and fun!! although we didn't win..)

iyammaveryboreingpersonn...

HI!! Just somehow in the mood of writing something.. so here I am... after 1 month in my current company.. i have got to know some of my colleagues pretty well... by listening to their conversations during lunchtime and some sharing.. I think i'm one of the youngest in the group... but i seriously think i look old.. Sigh~~

They have been asking that why did i switch my field from an exciting, happening broadcast tv production field to a boring, routine-ed publishing field?? "it's just routine work, doing the same thing everyday, you'll get bored easily..." Why did you come here?? tv production must be a better and fun environment to be spending your young and carefree days (which i think they mean know, judging on their reaction when they knew my age)".. I know.. i am totally aware of what i am currently signing up for... i know it's gonna be routine work.. i understand that it'll be a 7.5hr job during the weekdays, sitting in the office for 7.5hrs a day, without having to travel.. the furthest i have to walk is from my desk to the cafe which is situated downstairs and at the end of the floor but I dont go there frequently..

the course i studied for my degree is not destined for a 9-5 office job... people enroll to that course for the one main reason is to escape from getting into a 9-5 office job... so what am i doing?? as i have said in the previous post... tv production?? been there, done that... 4 months of internship and 3 months of "part-time" employment is enough for me to see where will i head to if i continue sinking myself into the industry... yes, i like production work... but the things that i like is to be handling the casts and supervising the script (which i hope is written by me), and maybe be in charge of the wardrobe.. that's all i guess.. i don't enjoy experimenting camera angles and lighting, i dont have the interest in arranging the props and trying to make them all look nice on the screen, i dont have the patience to see one thing shot over and over and over and over just to get the perfect shot... and last but not least, i don't like to hang around and act busy because honestly sometimes i have nothing to do on shoot... so i guess i am not that into production after all... the things that i enjoy is lesser than the things that i don't... so since i'm "young and carefree".. i guess i should try my other options and venture into other fields or industry.. like my second choice, the journalism, publishing field.. which i am trying out now..

i know it'll not be as happening and exciting as tv production... all i have is words and more word documents to accompany my hours.. however, i do admit... i'm not a happening and always-seeking-for-excitement person.. i dont plan my weekends.. i prefer staying at home with my tv or computer... i do take annual leaves for nothing (ok, the main reason is to clear them so that they wont go to waste)... i don't mind staying at home 24/7, i have my own ways of entertainment at home.. people will ask, why waste your time going home early?? don't you have any after work programmes?? honestly, no.. i hardly have any.. so a boring job for a boring person is just a match from heaven... they go together perfectly..

if you ask me, do i miss my old life in tv production.. well, yes, i do.. for the things mentioned above, handling casts, wardrobe and scripts... the rest... i can do without them... which is also why i now keep a journal with me.. ok, it's acts as a notebook as well (since i really can't use my pretty journal collection), my yearly organiser... i need to have something to write on.. my blogs are getting more and more exposed to people that i don't want them wandering around about my life... a personal journal works for me then... i could even jot down inspirations... if only i could draw... then it'll be lovely and more interesting instead of dull single-colored writings... but anyway, that also shows how boring am i...

how long have i been spending writing this post??

my life as a hoarder..

I said my post will be at a monthly basis so here I am now.. doing what I've said i'll do...

My current life is filled with work.. ever since my previous post which I have mention that i'm fitting into my new position.. now, my training is over and I'll be getting my very first product next Friday.. woohoo!! Malaysia Employer's Handbook.. a Top ten product man!! a newbie's first product is a top ten!! stress... hopefully I won't screw up..

I'm now helping my team mates with their product.. for one, i'm getting a hand of what to do.. and then, i have them to check for me after I'm done.. which is a very good thing because i'm not at all confident with what i am doing... hopefully I did not screw up a lot.. wooo.. so nervous about my first product.. I'll first have to be certain about what i have to do when i get a product.. hopefully the 101 briefing on monday will fill me with those details..

after the updates of my life.. let's start on the topic for this post.. i talked about self narcissism during the last post.. this time i'll like to talk about hoarders.. accumulating stuff for an unknown future use.. which also means for no particular reason.. accumulating for the sake of keeping... well.. some things may seem like rubbish to one but a treasure to another.. although i do belong to the category of a hoarder but i do have my arguments.. maybe they might sound the same as any other hoarders out there.. but still.. those are valid reasons..

you keep the plastic wrapper of your favourite toy.. rubbish?? how can it be?? you'll never know you might need to wrap the toy back again or maybe there's something else that needs wrapping and the size happens to fit!!

you keep your old textbooks.. not for the sake of revising (there might be times that you MIGHT, i said might need to revise your moral textbook), i have other reasons for those.. i'm keeping them around for the sake of the pictures inside.. as moral textbooks will always have pictures.. those are for future picture assignments.. since i'm not good in drawing.. i could cut and paste those picture that matches my need of the assignment.. isnt that a good reason??

i keep my old worn out clothes around because i might need them for the cloth and stuff.. as there are a lot of D.I.Y articles everywhere.. these old clothes may come in handy when you need cloths or buttons and other accessories on the clothing.. It's useful to have it around just in case...

as for my old toys.. for the sake of remembrance.. a sign of my childhood.. i love them a lot.. as each and every one of them have a different story within it... that's priceless, you know...

since i like to accumulate things.. and therefore i have a lot of things.. sigh~~ but i just couldnt bear seeing them end up in the trash.. or anywhere else out of my sight... all of them mean something to me... even a piece of paper have its value..

i have been trying to get rid of this habit.. i persuaded myself that old magazines will not have any use in the future.. and sold them all to the old newspaper man.. after a period of reluctance, that is.. i am still trying.. i can still keep stuff around, i guess.. i just have to organise them..

well, that's me as a hoarder.. i admit that i am one.. i dont need you telling me how serious is my condition and need to start throwing stuff away.. i'm completely aware of that.. but i still can't throw it off.. not yet...

my way of self narcissism

First post of the month... I have switch my blogging mode to a monthly basis... so my first post might also be my last post... depending on my mood... i might sneak up and update during my office hours, hehehe...

updates... updates... i'm fitting into my new job... as a production editor.. which has nothing to do with tv production... weee.... i have change my path to journalism/publishing... people will be wondering.. i have a major in broadcasting... supposedly i should be in some tv station or production house doing things that appears on tv... well... been there done that... so i think that's enough... I'm not that into tv production.. I just like to write stories.. that, i can treat it as a hobby... this is when my blogs come in handy.. a platform for my writings... in the meantime... i can deal with that...

that's all about my job... nothing much has been happening in my life... it's a fact that i lead a very non-happening aka boring life.. sticking myself at home like the female version of otaku, except i watch tv series and variety shows instead of anime.. read novels and magazines instead of manga... facebook instead of online chat forum..

oh... that reminds me.. i've read something about online narcissism somewhere (cleo, to be specific)... something that i have never myself would be... i am actually an online narcissist.. hahaha... because i make full use of my twitter.. happily posting random updates since it's just a sentence... besides that, the facebook status thing also serves the same purpose... always posting mysterious (which also means half-way-hanging-or-emo-stuff-with-the-purpose-of-people-commenting-to-ask for-further-information) status... i'm usually very "kepo".. so i always ask when i see these "mysterious" posts... sigh~~ my nature is to be "kepo"... what to do?? but i would usually be posting stuff that i want to remember.. in case when there is a time that i would want to check back.. i more of the too much information (TMI) person.. who post stuff that people would not want to know.. instance...

status posts (pov of reader)
i'm starting work tomorrow (so??)
the smell of rendang from the kitchen is making me hungry (erm.. why do i have to know that?? it's not me who is making you hungry...)
no money~~ (then?? not that i'm gonna give you any..)
i'm in dilemma <-- this has been quite a frequent phrase (what does that have to do with me??)

there's more from where it came from.. but these are just some examples... just to let you know, we are all falling into the category of self narcissism online... in order to prevent that... delete your twitter account and dont post any status updates...

for me, i'll just accept the fact... everybody wants attention, i guess.. that is why people are sharing their lives on the internet through facebook, twitter and even blogs... i think it's the "in" thing now... so we are actually "in"!!! wahahahaha...

and i guess.. that's the of my post for today... thank you very much and have a nice day~~

a short update..

It has been a month or so since I last wrote a blog post.. Now, i'm back to share a fraction of my life.. Another blog post for the month then... I just realise that i have posting blogs once a month.. i guess that should be enough to keep my blog activated..

after a few rounds of job search, i realise that i have not really have much writing works to show.. here's when my blogs became handy... luckily i have been writing quite frequently in the past and enough for people to see my writings by browsing around here..

writing is something i like to do... it will be good to have it as a job.. but after rounds of job search.. to have something you like as your job does not only require passion... there's other factors included as well.. so for now, although i don't have a writing job but i'll still be writing and make sure i have finished works to show when those are required...

thats all folks..

Me, myself as a student (part2)

I know it has been a long time.. my excuses are still the same.. busy and lazy... oh.. and no mood.. well, you need to have to mood to do things... that is why i am not sleeping now (it's 1.00am, fyi) and sitting in front of my desktop typing myself out...

Where did i stop?? ah, yes... I believe i ended at the end of my secondary years.. which turns into a new phase of study.. a totally different environment, known as the university.. I started my university life with foundation.. An exciting start to begin with... as it is completely different from my previous schooling days.. A fun year to start my university life.. although I did not really get to enjoy a campus life but at least then friends part did help replace that... life was happening back then when there were times we race off to the nearest shopping mall for lunch during our 3 hour break.. and even had k-session during our 4 hour break... don't ask me about the long breaks.. i really dont know why were they so long... anyway.. it's a really exciting experience for somebody who just reached 18..

Then, after my foundation years came to an end... my degree years starts... into a course that i was really looking forward to.. i started ok, my exam results, i mean... and then it went down every time... well, that's not something nice to mark my degree life.. so let's just let it go with this brief introduction... moving to another topic.. it's a bunch of nice coursemates that actually adds in the spices of my degree years.. it was not always happy, carefree, lovey-dovey... there were conflicts, arguments, disagreements and many other negative stuff... but in the end, i guess... we are still a class to hang together with.. besides these, the hanging out part and not forgetting the outings for assignments part are really memorable... during the time when we are free from classes, we'll be out at shopping malls, karaoke, steamboat-ing, traveling... etc... all of us have a gang we belong to.. 616... BFFs?? Nah!! it's just a childish way Paris Hilton use to categorize her friends.. She even have a reality show for it!! a reality show to be a BFF?? what the hell does BFF means to you anyway?? to me, a friend is a friend.. the level of "best-ness" differs but however so, their category as a friend will not change... so, we are friends and hopefully it will last forever... yeah!!
Our friendship could be seen through my previous posts of our outings... it's a bond that not a simple combination of alphabets can just represent.. it's kinda hard to put it in words if you ask me.. so just see for yourself (take a peek at my previous posts if you have time)

I'm almost done here.. I know its much much shorter than my previous one.. but my university life is more less recorded in my blog so i guess there is no point for me to repeat and summarise them here.. those who have been following my blog will know and those who have not, feel free to check them out if you have the time..


that's all folks!!

Happy Pappa Day!!

I know I wrote a long post for Mami's day... so now, to be fair.. i should a least have a post about my dedi... my pappa has always been, my atm card, my driver, my teddy bear (yep, he's huggable..), my sos call recipient (the person I will call when i have emergencies)... and many others which i can't think of at the time being...

Well, my pappa has always been there for me whenever i need a driver... as i have always said.. my sense of direction could easily flow down the drain.. My life has only been with Federal Highway and LDP... other places.. go at your own risk.. because i have a huge possibility of getting lost on the way... so here's when my pappa will come and save the day... he'll usually be around if he can to take me to places that i have no idea where in the world it is... He'll always try his best to be around when I need a driver... He's the reason why i'm not familiar with the local public transport... I personally think it is not a bad thing... the buses around here is unpredictable..

Pappa is an engineer.. So i can conclude that he's a science and maths person... he's my occasional tutor for my geography, physics, chemistry, add maths... and all those non-language subjects... the first thing he always say when i ask him a question is, " This is very simple.." Oh... easy for you to say... how can it be simple if i'm having problems with it?? Besides, i'm different from the family.. which is super weird.. My mami and pappa are more towards science and maths while i'm a language person... however, my pappa never stop me or try to "convert" me into a scince and maths person.. he lets me go on and i'm free to choose what i want.. as long as he is sure that i like it..

As for my atm card... i believe this applies to almost everybody... i usually get what i want... From CDs, watches, handphones and many other stuff... he will usually get it for me as long as it is affordable... hehe...

When i'm in trouble or anything that i couldn't handle.. the first person i will be calling is my pappa... especially since i started driving... when my car gets cranky, call pappa... when i have a flat tyre, call pappa... when i  meet an accident, call pappa... when i'm lost somewhere, call pappa... Oh, this depends.. if it's work then it'll not be pappa.. it'll be my colleague.. hehe... Pappa is my savior..

well... he brings me along during his company trips.. to China, to Hong Kong... and once, i almost get to go to Japan before my semester reopens right on the date of departure.. DANG!!! It's quite fun going out with pappa.. I have more freedom... and i don't have to rush over everything... hehe...

in a nutshell... my pappa is still the best pappa anybody could every have... Love ya, pappa!!
HAPPY PAPPA'S DAY!!! (ok, fine... Happy Father's Day to all the pappas aka fathers out there...)

The last day of my student card

Today marks the last active day of my university student card... so that officially means, after today i am no longer a student.. Although there are several "sequels" to my previous blog posts but I'll continue them later..

This post is mainly to mark the end of my student card... which means i no longer qualify to enjoy the benefits as a student.. student discounts, student promotions, student price and stuff... so from now on, i'll have to depend on my working salary instead of student allowance... judging on the amount i'm earning now.. i should keep my eyes off ebay and shoppings malls.. especially now, as i am still saving for my taiwan trip.. living off without weekly allowance feels weird as i have to feed myself and use my own savings since i have not received my first paycheque yet..

I don't know why i have this crazy thought to continue at the company i'm now working in after my taiwan trip.. that is, IF i did not manage to get another job i might switch to be a permanent.. How crazy is that?? after seeing people coming and leaving like the river flow.. How did i end up with such thought?? Really...

My working days has started a week already... so far so good.. Not much frustrations yet.. hopefully there won't be for the whole month... as i am still considered as a temporary.. i am allowed to leave anytime.. hehe....

good-bye student card... embracing my working life... the expiration of the student equals to the evaporation of assignments, exams, cgpa, and marks... until now, for me... it still sounds like a good thing... yippee for now...

A little something from my current life

Well... Since i am in the mood to post something here.. i will might as well update something about my current life.. which is surrounded and cornered by exams.. foooh... Speaking about exams.. this very last final exam of my degree life is the most torturous ever!! Not only the pressure to my very best to achieve as much gpa as i can to pull up my already pathetic cgpa.. but the mood to get everything done and dealt with, really takes away my mood to study... just think that i could ditch all these once and for all and get on with life makes me excited until i lost the touch with my notes and text books..

the other subjects have passed and are history.. so i'll just talk about the paper i just had this morning and the next paper on thursday... It's film studies paper today.. for this paper, i am not only suppose to know the history and movements of film... i'll have to watch movies too... Not the typical ones.. a significant soviet montage film, the Battleship Potemkin, it's a silent movie.. it's black and white.. and.... the best thing is... it's in Russian!! Then a combination of film noir and science fiction film, Blade Runner... it's an 80s sci-fi film.. and a dash of film noir which is a direct opposite of the typical sci-fi... so i'll have to analyse... well.. it has Harrison Ford in it.. so it's not too bad... but i only watch half of it... at least i watched.. coz i did not touch Battleship Potemkin... i have the feeling that i'll go blank even after watching the film.. so i should not waste time.. better make use of it and search for information online... and a good thing i did... coz what i found is exactly what is required of the question... wahahahahahaha... it's so unusual for me to have luck in spotting questions.. it is usually those i studied hard and memorise will not come out as questions... hmm.. lucky me.. thank god!!

Oh ya.. i am suppose to watch a Malaysian film... but i forgot about it.. so i totally skipped that question.. i did attempt to do that question because it just need arguements instead of theories.. but those need time to build up.. and for the malaysian movie, i could take movies that i have watched.. Kami, the movie, Spinning Gasing, Sepet, Talentime, Impak Maksima, Rain Dogs, Gol dan Gincu... hmm.. i did not realise that i have watched quite a number of local movies.. hahaha... but i also need time to think back and refresh the storyline... however time is what i'm lacking during exam.. so i ditched it..

anyway... i hope my answers are acceptable to get higher marks... hope hope hope.... i really need luck for this...

then on thursday, it will be my last paper... Television Production 2... sigh... a clueless paper.. the whole subject is basically us pouring our whole effort into the final year project which is under this subject, the multi-camera production of a live show... other that tips, dos and don'ts in the studio for the shooting, i could not really remember what else what taught in class... how am i suppose to sit for the exam??!! the best thing is, the guidelines given by the lecturers are so vague that i could just might as well burn the notes and swallow.. hoping i could remember everything in the notes that is so unfamiliar to me... hope hope hope, again...

ok... dinnertime...

Me, myself as a student

It's me again... to invade my own blogsphere.. another sudden mood... so another random post... Here goes...

After next week, i could unofficially shed off my student identity card and start a whole new life... why "unofficially"?? the official date falls during the convocation, right?? the day i throw off my student id once and for all... well.. i have been a student for almost my whole life.. and i can't believe that there's one day i will have to say goodbye to it... Maybe because i'm used to ticking the box on the occupation category that states student... Now, i'll have to tick something else.. or maybe UNEMPLOYED!! if i don't manage to get a job secures after my finals... yikes!!

I started to put on school uniforms when i was 2... and that's when i start kindergarten.. in case you are wondering why did i start so early... i remember mentioning that my mom was the headmistress of a kindergarten when i was born till i was around 3 or 4 years old.. so i was basically born in a kindergarten.. when i was 2 my mom put me in my very own school uniform and "kicks" me off to class, where i start learning to read, write and count...
since i started at 2.. my kindergarten days was unusually looooong... there was a time when my cousin ask, why are you forever in the kindergarten stage?? What can i do?? i'm not at age yet to enter primary school.. so of course i'm in kindie... what a question to ask.. i should have answered that during that time... aish... As a kindie student, i was quite talkative.. often being punish for talking in class... hehe.. i was quite good at reading.. judging my process on the "Peter and Jane" series... i was usually ahead of others.. '.' v

after 4 years of kindergarten in 4 different kindergartens... hahaha... my record... i finally reach the age to step into primary school.. my first primary school was in Penang... where i spent 4 - 5 months there... then i moved back to Subang and went to Sungei Way.. it was a "transit" while waiting for Lick Hung to accept me... I was there for around 2 - 3 months.. i remember how i hate the prefects there... i dont know why.. they dont let you open your mouth or stand up for god's sake.. What The??!! At least those in Lick Hung were slightly better...
then i was transferred to Lick hung and settled there throughout my primary years... people always say the pressure in Lick hung is unbearable.. but it's really weird that i don't feel anything... The homeworks are ok, additional classes in the afternoon are kinda fun because our initial classroom is occupied by the afternoon session so we get to use the science lab or the "kemahiran hidup" lab... which is very different from typical classrooms... how boring could it be when you can look at saws, hammers and other tools or test tubes, thermometers and other apparatus in class... they are kinda interesting, if you ask me.. a shift from the text... hehehe...
I was quite a good student.. yes, i am... i did my homework although occationally forgetting some, but i always manage to finish it before handing in! I go to school by bus so it arrives super early that i'm usually the first to reach the class and on the lights when i was in the morning session.. so i have plenty of time to complete my "unfinish" business... even if i forgot to do my chinese caligraphy, i could easily find ink and brushes conveniently in one of my classmate's drawers... hehe... as long as i wash it and put it back... he's ok with it.. he's used to it anyway... he needs it too... then i'll have dictionaries in the drawer on another classmate which is a big help when it comes to those exercise that needs to description of words and stuff or even idioms.. that guy have all sorts of dictionaries under his table.. you name it, he got it.. huhu...
besides that, the best thing about our class is we have been in the same boat (class) for 6 years... so we are really united when it comes to conflicts.. we even help back each other up during punishments.. and some of us are still in contact... after 10 years.. (woah!! I'm old!!)
the bus rides are also the best moments, i always set my watch alarm to ring 5 minutes earlier than the school bell to remind me to pack up so that i can run to the bus and secure a seat when the bell rings.. as you know, boys and girls this age like to fight.. it's always a fight on who gets the most seats on the bus... but sometimes the boys will buy us, girls keropok lekor to enjoy during the ride home.. that's kinda nice of them.. but they still fight with you.. sigh~~ boys are already so complicated as such a young age...
anyway.. my primary school life are the happiest student days throughout my whole student life... Where is the pressure?? I did not really feel it.. so stop saying that Lick Hung is full of pressure.. It is not.. and, mind you... I've got 7As for my UPSR... so trust me.. no pressure...

Then, i moved on to secondary school just opposite where i stay.. it takes less than 5 minutes walk if there are no cars on the road separating my place and the school.. this a completely different life compared to my primary school, which i will do anything to get my primary school life back... it's not that i hate the school.. it's just.. i don't like it... don't know why... the people there are ok.. teachers are ok, some are very nice.. the students are fine, classmates get along quite well... i just don't know why.. maybe the lack of sense of belonging??
well... this is the time when i realised i have no interest in science an maths... although my marks have been quite high during primary school... i have suddenly lost interest in them when i reached form 1... weird.. i still don't know why... at least i was quite a decent student in school... i don't break rules.. unless you count bringing liquid paper to school... but do you know how many tubes of liquid paper i can buy with the price of one correction tape?? and how long can i use it?? do the math.. people can also "conteng" using correction tape la.. without liquid paper, there are still loads of things to use, like pens, for instance?? forbid us to bring pens then.. hahaha... obviously i would not be that stupid to waste my liquid paper to "conteng".. what's there to "conteng" anyway???
The best part, i could say during secondary school is the co curricular activities... i was quite an active member back then.. because the school is near so there is no transportation problems.. the same clob and society every year.. Taekwondo, chinese language society and ping pong... shows my loyalty huh?? Taekwondo is because I have been learning it since standard 1... so might as well continue... Chinese language society is because i really miss my primary school days... and ping pong.... erm.... this is just random... i'm not good in ping pong... er... i FAIL in ping pong.. why did i join in the first place?? i think its a random pick... since i'm not THAT into sports and badminton requires members to go to another place from to school to practise.. so i chose ping pong... and i till dont know why...
That sums up my secondary school life... nothing much about it... the most to talk about are my friends... but i guess you already know them.. they have been constantly appearing in my blog.. hui ping, sheh lee, rachel, cheryl, ain, ika, syahira, fathimah, cze theng, wei lin... etc etc... so i'll jump off to my next paragraph...

oh... then, it's my university life.. which is broken into 2 parts.. foundation and degree which is totally different... and i decide to continue them in my next post... so i could have more posts this month and also continue with my endless studies... huhu...

*stay tune for my next post... should not be long after judging on the consistent bugging of blogging moods... Toodles!

when I am supposed to be busy...

I'm here... again... ditching my films studies and tv production 2 notes aside and typing for another post blog for the month... haha... like i said.. the mood of writing blogs will just appear during those very crucial peak periods.. when you really need to make use of every second you have to prepare for it... but the mood is like a bubble.. if you dont appreciate its appearance.. then when it pops.. it will be gone forever... and you will certainly regret the hell out of your life for not making full use of it when it's around.. at least, i do all the time...

speaking of appreciation.. film studies certainly reminds me of a very "unforgettable" subject i have taken last semester which will always be in my memories to haunt me.. it is called film appreciation, criticism and interpretation.. a long name increases the "scariness" of this subject... this sole subject is the verdict of I not getting a first class for my degree.. although i dont seem like i mind a lot about this classy matters.. but the fact is i do CARE... anyway.. a simple mistake could just bring you down from the top to the right bottom underneath the soil where people could step on you... a simple mistake deserves to be forgiven, don't you think?? maybe not for the second time.. but for someone who doesn't know... come on... oh, who cares now?? it's history..

but sometimes i do question the need of interpreting the inner, damn deep till nobody could see or understand meaning that is concealed so well only somebody who really have the utmost passion towards the film could really take the time to guess what message is it trying to convey... however.. sometimes i do wonder... does the director actually really thought of these things?? or it's just actually pure accident or meaningless than we main syok saja and go interpret like nobody's business?? I'm not saying that all are like that.. No no no... don't get me wrong.. this is just another way of me seeing it.. of course i do understand the need of interpreting the art of a film to appreciate.. but what if.. well.. i'm saying, what if there aren't any meaning?? why is it made in a particular way is just according to how the situation allows it to be?? There's no deep, sophisticated style of whatsoever message that is trying to be conveyed... just purely the way it is, there's no explanation or anything... the substance is already there when the director is filming and the director did not see a need for it to be removed or maybe they weren't allow/able to remove it... then here we are thinking the indirect message that it is suppose to convey.. something like that would be kinda funny, wouldn't it??

well.. this is just a joke, a sudden thought that i have will cracking my brain to interpret what a "flower pot" means in a random story... so please dont get offended and say that i am condemning the film appreciators, interpretors and critics... because i am not.. this is suppose to be a random thought to be treated like a joke.. thank you very much... ( sorry if you are offended but i really do not mean to..)

Ok now... time for facebook... haha... aren't i suppose to be studying?? i know, i am suppose to.. but let me collect my earnings from happy island, harvest my plants at country story, feed my workers at restaurant city, play with my pet at pet society first.. once i'm done with that.. i'll do the same using my sister's account collect her earnings, harvest, feed and other stuff... THEN only i'll start organising my notes and start studying... okie...

Mami and Me

Alrightey!! I know that i am now suppose to be drowning myself into the facts and figures of communication technology.. but.. as usual.. my blogging or writing mood will usually be turned on during these very crucial peak periods... sigh.. besides.. i have been ditching the blogsphere for quite a while now.. it's now time to be back.. or else.. my blogger status might even be terminated... Nah.. just kidding, it wouldn't be that serious.. unless i terminate my own blog.. Nothing will happen to Panda's space unless i say so.. yeps..

Now back to the topic... as everybody in the world knows.. mother's day is right at the corner.. so i now have the sudden urge to be writing about me mami..

I have hardly mention about my mami in my blog.. maybe because this is MY blog and it is suppose to be about ME.. ok.. MY family is also a part of me.. whoosh, whatever.. Sorry for the distractions.. it has been a long time since i last sit down in front of the computer and type a blog post.. so just bear with my sudden freak-outs and nonsense..

oo... coming back to where i am suppose to start with.. my mami... the fact that i am most proud of.. she is a masters student wei!! fuyoh, bangga sial!! however... friends of my mom has been constantly saying that my mom has been sacrificing a lot for the family.. Actually they did not say "family"... they said FOR ME.. i didn't really understand at first until i stepped into my university days.. only i know that she was suppose to have a bright future ahead of her since masters are quite hard to come by during her days.. and she decided to settle down and raise me up.. ("you raise me up...so i can stand on mountains~~" hehe.. so touching.. snif snif.. ehem.. back to blogging) so that how she sacrificed for ME...

But, I did TOO sacrifice for her.. erm... hmmm.. uh... ok fine.. i didn't.. eh, wait.. does driving her or my bro or my sis around count?? because she is lazy to drive and i did sacrifice my TV and online time for that, you know.. oh well.. i did help out with household chores too!! wash the dishes occasionally, help clear up when i have the mood, bring the clothes out to dry, take the clothes back in, frantically running to take the clothes back in when my neighbour's maid start screaming "Hujan!! Hujan!!".. and yes, there is a difference between both, one requires effort and the other requires more agility.. hehe.. ah yes.. i sort the clothes too, fold the clothes.. buy clothes.. hehe.. that's not suppose to be in the list..

anyway.. the times when she started teaching me mathematics when i was like 3 years old was my worst nightmare.. just because she is good in maths and also a statistics major does not make me a born mathematical genius or whatsoever.. well.. i guess that is why i hate maths.. until NOW... But i can't deny the fact that it did helped me quite a lot.. imagine at the age of 3 or 4(i'm not sure which).. i already know that the mathematical signs (+ - x /  i dont know their real names, so sorry.. told you my maths is bad) that is moved to the other side of the equal sign will be the opposite of its kind.. like a plus becomes a minus and vice versa.. i did not know this theory really exists until when i reach form 2.. i really thought it was a formula invented by my mami.. haha.. because i have never seen this formula throughout my primary days.. that sounds kinda cool.. hehe..

the best thing about my mami is she goes shopping with me and my sis.. and most importantly.. PAYS!! haha.. thats one of the reason why i love shopping with my mami.. and also we can buy clothes, bags or shoes that fits all 3 of us.. coz we are almost of the same size.. maybe just a slight difference.. but.. nevermind.. save money, save the environment.. thats a good thing.. so the exchange of clothes and other garments part is frequently happening in our house.. sometimes you'll find someone digging into the wardrobe that is not hers.. hahaha...

not forgetting.. my mami's cooking.. my bro has been constantly praising my mom as a "good cook" ever since he start eating solid food.. although he sometimes compare her with my 3rd aunt (saa koar) but she's a chef la.. can't really compare.. but he did say they are on similar standards.. anyway.. my mami cooks yummilicious food.. although now she keeps emphasizing on the less salt, less oil = healthier eating habit.. but still, i'll miss it when i don't get to eat them for more than 3 days..

hmm... that's all i guess.. i have to go back to my facts and figures or else i'll be in deep trouble tomorrow.. see ya soon!!

just~~

I know it seems that i have not been updating my blog for like ages.. but honestly.. i have 2 incomplete posts stashed up in my drafts(this post is also one of them, so it makes 3 drafts).. because i havent really got the time to fill in the photos and stuff...

many many things has been going on currently... not forgetting the ever-haunting;y-annoying assignments.. just when i can i get over with them?? i just hate all these marks that will drastically affect your CGPA stuff... why does it matters so much?? who invented these kinda things anyway?? i know in order to "force" students to study.. marks and exams will be the only tool the make them sit down and revise what they have learnt in class.. honestly.. thats just so irrelevant.. if somebody wants to study.. he/she will get his/her butt onto the notes and books how it matters or not.. if he/she dont want to.. what's the point of forcing them thru marks?? its a waste of time and money and effort and a whole lot of other things.. besides.. marks does not proof a thing if you ask me.. i know a bunchie of people who are just great on what they do but screwed themselves hard time in exams and failed like a dozen times.. but just because of a bunch of numbers.. they are categorised in the "unqualified" group... which is a big bundle of nonsense.. its up to an individual on knowing his/her skills.. and how they wanna put effort in working on it (improving, that is)..

i'm saying this because me and a gazzilion of them out there are victims of the marks/qualifications come first society.. what they see first is how well you did in your exams and how high is your cgpa.. than to see if you really want to study.. some people just dont have the luck in exams and marks and stuff but they really have the heart to go thru notes and research on books and stuff comparing to some who are pure geniuses but dont know what are they working for.. it doesnt matter whether you are from the type who doesnt have any luck or the type who has but dont know the use of it..

anyway... i came by a very good quote from a friend...

"why do you have to judge someone base on their grades?isn't there more in their personality besides credit ratings and CGPA???!!! it doesn't mean that someone has distinction has more knowledge than the other..it just means they study the textbook damn long enuff to know every f**king thing "


And guess what.... I totally agree with this... it's brilliant!!

March with birthday busy-ness

Well.. unfortunately for me.. my birthday will always "coincidently" meet with mid term tests, assignments due.. yadda yadda... stuff that will always take my mood away from celebrating my birthday... it use to be bundles of mid term tests... and however coincident it will be... the subject on my birthday will be Math... sigh~~ of all subjects.. you'll have to pick the subject i dislike the most.. it happened during form 2 and form 4(i think, or is it form 5.. either one).. worst for the latter.. it was add maths..

Then when i was in university.. It has to be some mid term test of whatever presentations or assignment due.. anything could happen just to not make my birthday a day for me to fully enjoy... i remember there was once it's the DJ live show thingy going on... Then it's International Advertising mid term... and now.. it's the communication law assignment due the day right after my birthday... Well.. anything else you would like to say besides luck or fate??

Anyway.. one thing is i skipped a class on my birthday..
well.. no.1 it's my birthday (this reason stands out right itself)
no.2 it's comm tech tutorials... (i guess you know what i mean..)
no.3 the class would usually last for less than 1 hour... (so....)

I have 3 solid reasons.. so off i go...

However... the 616 gang have planned a surprise party for me.. well.. it has been quite some time ever since surprise parties happen to me.. so to be frank.. I WAS SURPRISED...
no.1 because they surprised me the day before my birthday
no.2 i thought it was for someone else...
no.3 It's not my birthday YET..

but anyway.. really appreciate the effort...

so here are some photos... of the celebration...



My cake and me...




My present... Darry the elephant!!






616... Thanks a lot!!! Luv ya!

again about communication

Ah yes.. before you forget about me.. i'm a bachelor of communications student so basically my subjects in school are about communication... intro to mass comm... comm theories.. comm law... comm technology... etc etc... so by right.. i'm suppose to be superb at communication??

right?? NO!!

i believe you have spotted my post 2 years ago about communication theories or something.. if not.. i think it'll pop back up in the links below this post.. anyway... it's not that important... because i'm not going to be talking about communication theories or whatsoever... i'm gonna share something about communication technology or better know as ke-munication technologee... Again... another communication subject lecturer who can't communicate... What's the problem with people nowadays?? he keeps saying that we are dreadful students who don't listen in class, have no respect for the lecturer and whatsoever... eh hello... "you blind ah??!!" i'm always trying my best to listen to your lectures ok?? eventhough it kills me softly from the inside..

then he comes up with this lousy dumb st*p*d idea of changing the attendance list every lecture so that we can't refer to our previous signature and therefore people can't sign for you because according to him.. once he found that your signature is different.. he'll straight away bar you from exams.. and dont even dream of him unbarring you... what the??!! do you have a problem?? everybody knows that you can write a word in the exact same style twice... how can you sign in the same style for 14 weeks?? oh ya.. i forgot.. this is a 4credit hour paper... so times 2... 28 times.. there's sure to be some difference there... i would like to see you barring me because of that.. if you do... you are not seeing the last of me... i'll haunt you forever man!! oh.. i forgot another thing... he said if your signature or initial... i was at first using the initial of the 1st letter of my name and a figure that sounds similar with my last name... then he told me to use another initial.. "you got problem ka??" do you know what is an initial?? if you want me to sign complicated, artistic, bombastic signature.. go ahead and say it.. change my initial?? why don;t you ask me to change my name?? and also... are you aware that global warming is getting worst?? so why are you still wasting paper by printing a new attendance list every lecture?? there's around 4 or 5 pieces per class.. let's make it 4 then.. to save your guilt... 4 times 28... you do the math.. cannot?? 112 pieces of paper going to waste.. thanks to him who have to go thru the hassle of checking each and every signature making sure nobody is inventing new signatures or somewhat so that he could add in the list of candidates to be barred.. excuse me.. we did not ask you to do that, ok?? there are better ways of making sure people don't sign for others during lectures.. use your brain and think, please...

i'm not done yet... to concentrate in his lecture is kinda hard coz it's really hard to avoid the annoying invisible questions marks swarming all over your head.. he reads directly from the slides... his further explanation are directly from the slides with a little rephrasing and synonyms.. (ah... that's how you quote stuff from materials... use synonyms and rephrase.. a lesson to be learnt) and then i realise than his notes are directly from the textbook... "eh uncle, you first day in utar ka?? tak tau budak utar 80% english not very good?? you use textbook english, siapa faham?? with your weird intonation some more.. very confusing" ok..
for instance..
a point from the notes "communication is a process of exchanging information using a common sign or symbol" (just an example, the fact might not be correct)
explanation "so communication is a process... of exchanging the information which means you exchange the information using a common sign or symbol"

apa ni??!! if that's the point you think i can't read myself??

then after lectures.. you ask whether we have any questions... saying that when you were in univeristy you will feel very sad if you dont have the chance to ask questions... in my case.. i'll feel very sad if i have questions coz that means i dont understand the lecture and i grade myself as "stupid" already... ok fine.. maybe for further understanding i might ask questions.. but in your class.. no thank you... i tried it once and never wanna try again.. i get even more confuse after asking.. you seem to twist your words everywhere around the world.. when ask a straight forward a or b question... you tell me the story of c and d which is completely irrelevant and none of my concern... so, why waste time?? and make myself even further from where i am initially from the subject...

and enjoys torturing us... you mentioned that you will not give tips for exam.. so?? big deal... "don't give la!!" i dont mind.. dont even care.. i can study on my own.. thank you very much.. but then you like to give out ridiculous hints like "don't be surprise.. i make make that as a question in the exam.." i heard than like a trillion times during my 6 weeks of lectures.. what do you expect us to react when we see the questions?? get the shock of our lives and suffer from a heart attack?? and maybe die on the spot in the exam hall?? and then your favourite phrase.. "i may put that as a question but no promises.." who do you think you are?? shayne ward?? if you dont wanna let us know.. don't say it at all.. it's really irritating... oh oh... another quote "don't expect me to have question so straight forward, there is no way i'm gonna ask like that.." so??!!

understood that the lecture is boring... i know it's really hard to make it interesting with all those facts and graphs.. but at least just teach like all other lecturers do... why keep giving students a hard it's their 3rd year already.. let them be.. you dont wanna give tips then dont... go on teaching and dont blurt out random useless hints which end up with a "no guarantee".. what's your point?? to show that you wanna hint us but at the same time we should be studying everything instead of depending on tips?? you so don't know what our generation are thinking.. so dont ask and show that you understand us as if you were in our shoes.. you are NOT! we are from different generations, FYI..


-Ah.. if you are wondering why did i choose such a striking colour.. i do have a reason though.. so you don't have to read if you don't want to.. just some personal rants-

put on and put off...

Check out this amazing photo of Hogwarts Castle from the Wiza... on Twitpic

Just a random photo i would like to share..
It's Hogwarts!!! don't know why.. i'm currently in a harry potter mood.. i re-read the whole 7 books... and not forgetting janet hayden.. but i lost my papers AGAIN... sigh... have been searching high and low already... but it's nowhere to be found...
sigh... type and save in the computer.. once the document corrupted... cry... write and pen down on papers.. once the papers are lost.. cry again... what's the best way to preserve writings??
Continues writing about Janet Hayden... this time i found the safest way.. well at least it is the safest for the time being... write and save it in my email... at least.. i think email database will be quite unlikely to be corrupted..


Week 4 has just began... workloads are starting to pile.. things are requiring serious attention.. what a way to start my pre-CNY mood...
2 proposals are due today... and several are due on week 7.. 3 weeks left... and i'm still here staring into empty space and empty documents... "don't know what to do" is the best phrase to be used during this semester..
Really in mood for CNY... But the heaps of assignments really puts off the fire... so what should i do???
no.1 Push assignments behind my mind and get on with the celebration and start jumping around anxiously after the celebration because the deadlines are inches away...
no.2 get started with assignments... do bit by bit even during CNY... (That's a put off!!)
no.3 Get everything done before CNY and enjoy the celebrations.. (This is IMPOSSIBLE...)
Whatever it is... I'll still have an assignment-filled CNY...

The "Should" or "No Should"??

Sometimes i really question a lot of things.. Once upon a time... people tell me that extra-curricular activities was very very very important when it comes to applying scholarships during the tertiary education stage... Does it??

Ok, i'll admit that i am not active and involved in current university activities due to the time and transport thing.. but i was quite active during secondary school...

notice the past tense???

I really don't get it... If extra-curricular is THAT important.. how come i see people whom i know have not been actively involved in extra curricular activities gets scholarships like nobody's business??

So what is it actually?? Is it important or not??

If it is... then how come i see what i saw?? how is it fair??

I put in a lot of effort in those... but in the end... it seems useless... everybody are standing on the same box... active or not... so should i be spending my time on things that doesn't really help me in anything.. whilst the transportation i am using could be put to better use at other place??

and then how come questions about the active-ness comes up again??

I really don't get it...

from laws to ethics

You can clearly count the days that i have not been updating because my last post was on the 1st day of the month.. It's the 21st now so i have abandoned my blog for 20 days... There's a few reason why i have not updating my blog like i did previously...
no.1 i'm lazy...
no.2 i dont think that it is necessary for me to update every single detail of my life already...
no.3 my life is so un-happening that i have nothing to fill my posts...
no.4 havent thought of it yet...

Started the first week of my very last semester as a degree student... the very last chance to get my cgpa back up for a change..

First subject... communication law.. LAW!!! my best guess is there will be a heck lot of lines to remember... and loads of reading to do...

Next... Communication Technology.. honestly.. the only thing i know about this subject is "communication technology"... that's the only the phrase the lecturer has keep repeating for a gazillion times!!

Film studies... dont know how will it turn out... hopefully it only share the "film" word and not the whole critical, analytical, skeptical, illogical, whatever-cal thing...

tomorrow will be my first taste of Media Ethics and Television Production II...

early conclusion.... I'm SO DEAD!!!!

New New 2010

Just to say.. i think i should be posting something on the first day of the year.. as my first post of the year.. before i curl myself up in bed... and get ready to wake up the next morning with my mom cling clanking around telling us to clear up the dusts around the room... why wouldnt dusts go extinct?? i will not miss it though... it's always the hassle of clearing up before the New year.. Chinese new Year to be particular... and i hate that... too many stuff but too little to be disposed.. i'm the kind of person who likes to collect rubbish for a reason that nobody could understand.. oh well... i believe there's always some use for that certain object some day... and i desperately need a new bookshelf!!! after my dad throws me a box and told me to empty my previous bookshelf.. i'm now down to just 6 small shelves for all my textbooks, novels, storybooks, language books... and trust me, it's not a small number (and i'm not boasting)

whatever then... for this year.. i want to graduate 1st class... but i think it's kinda impossible after the wreckage i have done for a certain subject which will be totally trashing my hopes of maintaining my cgpa for first class.. sigh~~ dumbo!! oh.. i heard my convocation will be at Kampar, i think... so i guess my friends might not make it... sigh~~

after graduating... i'm actually throwing off my student card... my student life that i have been embracing ever since i was 2... almost 20 years... i'm now switching to a new phase.. the occupation section in forms that i have to fill will not be filled in as "student" anymore... woah.. kinda hard to get used to all of a sudden... but still i hope to get a decent job.. something that i like to do.. or at least, pays well... i can deal with either one... i knwo life is not perfect as you will never get what you want.. so i'm happy with half..

or maybe.. i can take another turn.. but it's not really in my plan... to pursue a masters degree.. i plan to do that after 2 years of working experience.. but i suddenly have the urge of going abroad and it's getting stronger when i face frustrations here.. which will never be lesser... i'm still planning to go to HK though... since i could not really stand going to a country that speaks English, as a lot of people have suggested US,UK and Aussie... then.. i dont wanna waste a year for language, so Japan and korea is out... Taiwan... maybe.. but i prefer HK... a lot of people dont like the lifestyle there but ifind it extremely comfortable for me.. fast-paced.. but i can handle i think... realistic.. i know that.. sorry to burst bubbles... so now i'm working on the search for scholarships.. hopefully... sigh.. without a first class.. things will be difficult... damn.. i should have signed up for another course.. i knew that i suck at design, criticisms and stuff which obviously have done dreadful things to my cgpa.. such as pulling them down from where they were suppose to be... dreadful~~

oh.. i'm done.. it's almost 1am already.. i should go off to my bed and tumble down and around before starting my new year with load of CLEARING UP to be done... sigh~~
