Finally, term break!

Hi everyone!

Finally, i have some time to blog since now im having my term break. Fuhh! Finally. But of course, it will not be a full one month of holiday. I still need to prepare fully for my mid-year exams which start right after the holidays. Luckily my GP paper is done, so 1 down, 5 more to go. Physics, Chemistry, Maths, Malay and Malay Lit.
Not to forget, my Project Work (PW) is yet to be done, the surveys, interviews etc.

So, i've created a my holiday schedule, and it looks like i have only 15 days of holiday. Really need to make full use of it. And today, it is one of the days. So 14 days left. Today nothing much, So no need to talk about it. Just do some revising on my chemistry, which i really need to buck up. Hai.

Last week i had quite an enjoyable weekend. On Saturday, i went out with her. =p Went to watch ' Over the Hedge' and spend some time doing some window-shopping with her. Nice experience for me. You should know why, because frankly i had never went out with a girl on a 'date' before this and worse still, walk around in Orchard Road. I can't imagine myself lost there. I'm just not used to. Even the Flilipino maids there are more expert than me. haha.

On Sunday, went for the New Paper Big Walk. Its my third year consecutively going for the event. This time, i didn't joined for the competitive one, fun-walker only. Went there with my CCKSS friends; firdaus, ismarian, amin and his cousins. Walk walk walk, Talk talk talk. And i accidentally made Firdaus to trip and fall at the finishing line. haha. So embarassing. We were sprinting ( We were supposed to walk, but the eagerness to finish a.s.a.p overcome us) for the last 100m or so and thats how it happened. Sorry Fir. I try not to do that again in for any future Big Walk events. haha. We were too tired take MRT so take bus 985 from Kallang all the way to CCK interchange. I think got around 1 hour of journey. We slept all the way, conquering the back the bus. Nice. We had our lunch at LJS in Lot 1 and finally went home after that. Although i describe this rather sounds uninteresting, the journey back from Kallang to CCK was fun. With the cooling air-conditioner and the large space at the back of the bus just make me feel like home. hahaha.

Alright lah, i stop here. This June holidays really need to catch up on my studies. Not to forget, World Cup too. =p

P.S: X-Men III the best movie i've seen so far!

A Fallen Hero

Khairul --
[noun]:

A person with a sixth sense for detecting the presence of goblins

'How" will you be defined in the dictionary?' at QuizGalaxy.com
wow! i can sense the presence of ghost. Hmm.. interesting.
Well, last two weeks, i had an anti-climax moment. I just bought a bubble tea at the bubble-tea shop at Yew Tee when i heard somebody screaming in Hokkien, asummingly asking for help.
I was just going up on my bike that time, and you know what?! A thief had snatched her handbag!
I thought " Wow!.. finally i have an oppurtunity to become a hero", so i gave chase.... on my bike i mean. And it was a wrong move.
As i was approaching him nearer and nearer( he was damn slow man! He was jogging rather than running), unfortunately, my bike hit a curb when i steered it to the side and yes, i flew off to the ground.
haha.
By the time i looked up and tried to gave chase again, he was nowhere in side.
Wasted.
Just imagine if i caught that guy............
Hmm. Probably my face will come out in the next day's newspaper front page.
OR
Obituary. Who knows.. He might armed with knives or guns.
It may be a blessing in disguise when that happened.
Moral Of The Story: It's very difficult to become a hero in reality.

Kuala Lumpur Trip.. A memorable one!

Yo Everybody!

It has been a very long time since i blogged. haha. Well, busy lah as always. You all should know me right? haha. like real.

Alright2, last week i didnt manage to blog because i was away on a a short vacation to Kuala Lumpur!

My family went there with my other 24 cousins, uncles and aunties. Our main motive to go there was actually to attend my malaysian cousin's wedding function. She was the younger sister to a Malaysian actress, so that means i have a cousin who is an actress in Malaysia! Wow.. interesting. haha. I don't know that actually coz i rarely met them.

Friday- 8.30pm
We all meet up at Jurong East Interchange to get our tour bus there. The bus was like totally belong to 30 of us! haha.. so bro and me occupied the sits at the back of the bus. Yeah.. Conquer the whole back seats!

Journey there was fine, except that i didnt manage to look around Malaysia coz it was very dark at night. Lack of lamp posts probably. Heh. Journey there took at least 5 hours when we finally reached Petaling Jaya. took photos of the KLCC and went around in a chocolate factory. Interesting you noe! they made many different types chocolate. Durian chocs and even tongkat Ali chocs!

We met an indian fortune teller during our shopping trip. My father decided to try it out for fun although we didn't believe him. haha. But interesting ah. He used his parrot to take a card from this deck of cards and he would read it out to you. I think its more like the parrot is the fortune teller rather than himself. haha.

That night, we went for the wedding function. The event was quite grand, coz it was held in a convention hall and the MC was a Malaysian DJ from what i heard from my father. The food was exquisitely decorated and mouth-watering, like this one...

Half of the people only in this pic. The rest i think still sleeping peacefully. haha.

Went to P.Ramlee bungalow house. It was re-designed to become a museum about him. As for those chinese ppl out there, just for your info, he was a the well-known Malaysian actor, director, singer, script-writer, poet and alot more. But he passed away years ago when he was only 45 years of age. It was a sentimental moment went we enter his house. The songs played especially 'Getaran Jiwa' in the atmosphere made me realise how much he really meant to the Malay Community. I really hope to visit it again in the future. Unfortunately, i can't take any photos from the inside coz it was forbidden.

We went to Berjaya TimeSquare right after that purely to enjoy the indoor amusement park inside. It is called ' Cosmo's World Theme Park' . We played alot of games and rides till many of us became giddy. haha. and I took on all the rides man! fearless seh. haha. Why did i say that? Coz many of us backed out after 2 rides but i continued further on to complete the whole 6 rides there. haha. nice. including the indoor roller coaster, longest ever in Asia!

After that, we went on to shop at Petaling Street where we spend almost 3 hours there. haha. If not because of the tour bus waiting for us, i think we would spend more time there. Simply because the things there are all super cheap! Since i was too engrossed in shopping, i didnt take any pictures. haha.

That night, we went back to our hotels before finally getting ready for our final reunion dinner at ChowKit Restaurant with our malaysian cousins, aunties and uncles. We ate alot of Malay traditional dishes such as Ikan Bakar, Ulam-ulam and Siput Sedut. Simply marvellous!

Monday

It was our last day in KL. Before returing back to Singapore, we still manage to shop for an hour in Nilai Tiga. By the time, many of us just stayed in the tour bus. Too tired to shop lah probably. But not my aunt coz she forced me to accompany her to buy some clothings and bags. haha. We had our lunch there too and FINALLY we were on our way home back to Singapore. That's when we had our 4 hours of karaoke session in the bus. haha. stylo ah. Got TV and micorphone wat. So make full use of it lah.
