Of Rainy Days And Good Food

Raindrops fell on the bus window

as i stare out into the horizon.

cold and silent.

i use to love rain especially in the morning,

yeti despise it now.

the main reason is that i get showered

when i was waiting for the unim bus.

to make the matter worse,

i am not familiar with anyone to share the

umbrella with.

so i stand under the little patters

of rain water, forming puddles under me.

i guess it would be handy sometimes

to carry those sissy looking small umbrellas.

the bus seems slower now.

i dread having to wait for 5 10 minutes

for the fucking bus.

with no one to talk to, i

turn to my ipod for companion.

yet, it is fucking boring not having your mouth

muscle moving.

bus rides are cramped these days.

old bus.

poor uni.

hate.....

================================

carmen's new room mate is fricking amazing.

she is from vietnam and her name is Hang.

she made these amazingly delish veit cookies

made from coconut milk.

lets not delve into the details of cookie making

but rather spend my time telling about the taste.

it tasted a little like sesame cookie but with

a strong coconut flavor in it.

it is crunchy and tasty :)

highly recommended.

Blowoff

I never knew that my new classmate shingzzzz

lived near me...

in fact she lived in the same condo with

keith and tai onn....

wtf....

moving on....

the lecture seminar thingy was a total

blow off...

not to say that i am not interested, but rather place it

as uninteresting speaker...

we made past the first speaker with ease but the 2nd and

3rd speaker was totally boring,....

after the 3rd speaker, a short simple refreshment was served.

consisting of karipaps and kuih..... T.T

so much for coming to uni on a no class day.

Jess Driving Stick Shift

Right now i am at IS blogging.
no classes today, yet i came to uni because
there is going to be a talk on biotechnology.

seriously i dont give a damn if some
old geezer is spending their time lecturing but i
was only interested about the refreshments they are
serving after the talk.

i spend some time just now
playing badminton with
jess ron kianmin carmen stef.
ivan was at is so he cant join us.

after sports we went to lunch at sa.
jess offered to drive us there using ron's car
but i wished she hasn't.

fyi, ron's car is a stick shift so it won't be like
your conventional auto car.

so jess stepped into the 'cockpit'
and the nightmare began.

she wanted to move forward so she stepped on
the accelerator and the car died instantly.

wtf......

it was only by the second attempt that she managed to
move hahaha.....

as expected, jess thought that manual car have the ability to change
their gear from 1 to 2 by it self --

so she accelerated more in hope that 1 will be 2.....

hahaha, pretty hilarious.....

we went round the whole uni in search of parking lot ....
seriously jess manual was really funny.

we almost crashed into a crane if not for stef super
deformed reflexes.

there was a moment where jess had engine failure 3 times
in a row.

lol.... the 3rd time was the funniest...
the car was jerking as though it had orgasm.

in the end we spent 10 mins looking for parking when we could just
walk from sports complex to sa.

luckily ron took over the driver's seat and we
ended up in sa in one piece.

after my vegetarian lunch, i am here now blogging....
in an hours time i will be sitting through a boring lecture
and have refreshments later....

talking about desperation

Uni starts again

I am back in uni. but i wont be officially moving to tts until 16 october 2009.

frankly i am excited to be back. why? haha... because it is a fresh start? new faces?

Yet there were a few students who were in my class in foundation had moved on

with their degrees in uk. those unfortunate ones dropped out .... miss you guys :)

either way, life have to move on.

my class started at 10 today so i had plenty of time to check out carmen's new suite.

to my surprise, the room appeared neater than their previous room.

haha, no joke.... the girls seems alot cleaner than usual.

btw, sherrie got her hair straightened and it brought usual statements.

my initial statement was that she put on fake hair extensions, because i never seen her hair this long before.

but the new hair style suit you sherrie, serious.

when the classes started, i went to b building and met with familiar faces.

except one ... wei keat... lol

his car tire punctured and had to be fixed.

so our first lecture was conducted by dr festo masawi.

haha i dont know how to spell it so just refer him as festo la.

he is an african lecturer with a blur accent.

==

my class has 2 new addition.

first is a chung hwa student called shingzzzzzzzzzzzzz

another was a malay girl named arf.....

seriously if this trend continues, everyone will be having short forms to our names =-=

lecture was long and filling.... not filling my stomach but rather my brain.

soon, the lectures called for a lunch break :)

gladly we went to sa and lo behold, sa looked like some pasar malam --

crowded and erm crowded???

we choose our table and quickly ordered our meals.

after lunch, i went and met with vern who was also studying at nottingham...

lol... he dyed his hair gold -- so shocking la vern.....

we chatted and i introduced him to yoga and angel.

lol..

the next lecture was conducted by dR PETER.....

haha a scary dude to some and a boring dude to others....

it was hard to concentrate during the lecture because it was fricking cold.

i was having trouble listening while controlling my nasal ability to pass motion.....

lol

class ended and i wanted to meet up with vern but wei keat offered to fetch me to

ktm so i had to pass the opportunity to meet him .....

but the funniest part was that eeleen forgot to bring her room key so she had to go

back to ulu shah alam to get her keys.

and she got to take the train to go back to shah alam.

during the journey, she had plenty of incidents such as standing behind a guy with

sweaty body and a bad b.o

lol.... happy journey ya,.. i think she hasn't reach home yet....

so to nottingham students happy semester and happy studying and happy socializing

this video was pretty hilarious.

Canon D

i usually play games or go on the youtube.

today i stumbled upon

an excellent guitar player

called sung ha jung.

try google it on youtube.

fricking amazing.

============================

i went and see the house i will be

renting in tts.

going to stay there.

:)

===========================

my brother came back

to death --

Progressing to Year 1

I woke up from a nightmare

in which i got only 7.

i was so frightened.

i woke up and called ms jane instantly.

without delay.

it took an eternity for ms jane to answer her phone.

ms jane : hello?

me: helo ms jane, is the result out yet?

ms jane: inaudible background noises.

me : dumbfounded

ms jane: ah what was it again?

me: wtf (in my heart ) when is the result out?

ms jane : not yet...

me: okae (haiz another day of waiting)

msjane: hello, is this kenneth, you only want to know whether you are progressing to

year 1 right?

me: ah yes yes yes.

ms jane : yes you are

me: leapt and broke through the ceiling.

hahaha

yes i will be staying.

btw try googling for showstoppa song by the arka teks.

they are a new fresh band making electo dance song which are

damn nice.

Kaya King, Farwell and ERM WORK!!!!

it was miriam's idea to go kayaking.

i did it a few times during

national service.

one word fun...

so it was decided.. saturday.

meet up at church at 1.30.

being a punctual being ahem...

i went out early to take a cab there.

arrived there early as usual

only to find out that the others are late. ==

anyways... miriam is fetching us together with

terence's car and SHAUN'S as well.

the reason i empahsized on shaun's is because

it was late. ==

to make the matter worse, he forgot the

CAKE --

haha...

anyways the venue is putrajaya lake club.

it was a long journey there. we took the highway straight

to putrajaya.

on the way i saw a ferari speeding on our side...

within seconds, he was gone.

around 30 minutes later, he was on

the other side coming back down.

the reason i know it was a he

instead of a she is because

he left the hood on.

if it was a she, she would be letting here hair

FLOW !!!

we arrived there safely and sleepy.

i mean the sun and wind was perfect for

snoozing.

we found a nice spot among the trees

as our picnic spot.

we played games and had our lunner (lunch+dinner)

then we started our kayaking.

i shared my kayak with thomas.

kayaking under the sun was

fun and tanning.

hot wind blew on me as i paddle

on.

futile attempts were made as

we tried to paddle against the wind.

we had fun spashing people and bumping into

each other kayaks.

it was pretty reasonable too

10 bucks for an hour.

the day ended with us getting lost on our way back from putrajaya.

+++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++

sherrie texted me asking whether

i would like a one day job or not.

hmmm.

tough decision.

to rot or be productive.

so i decided that i should

move my lazy ass and work.

we agreed to meet up at kl sentral mcd

and she would take me there.

early bird kenneth was there 10 mins

early while late bird sherrie was

nowhere to be seen.

haha... after and eternity

she arrived.

we arrived at the place

insight research at 9am

and sherrie told me what i had to do.

which turns out to be extremely tough.

coding.

erm...

imagine there is a whole load

of questionnaires like the ones

we did in english.

then there were question with answers

which needed codes.

so my job was to code the answers.

..........

so tough.

i was glad that it was lunch.

we wanted to go mcds but a co worker ( boss's daughter)

suggested that we head for soka, a neighbouring building for lunch.

me being a blurcase at that time agreed la.

we went and the foodcourt was amazingly empty during lunch hour.

there were nothing to eat so i ordered a kung fu ying yong.

sherrie ordered a sweet and sour fish rice.

mine was ok.

sherrie's was Fail case.

the fish tasted so awful.

and sherrie managed to finish half of it.

anyways... i worked and it was fun

i usually work from 9 - 8..

so dedicated.

the pay is good as well.

6 per hour.

============================

miriam is going to uk...

to study med

goodluck there and enjoy your stay.

study hard :)

Life Aftermath

Since I am not much of a writer these days,

i guess i will just type out a post

to let everyone know i am still alive.

after the stupid organic resit,

i am still stabbing about the lecturer.

why, because she is a no good teacher

getting paid for learning with us.

Forcibly marking our exam sheets when

she knows that she is not qualified to do so ==

still i took my test along side with

kitz daniels joan janji keyakinan and talab.

not so boring huh..

it was funny at first that we agreed with each

other to not go out of the hall if we finished but in

the end, daniel and i left 30 earlier before the

exam finishes.

Next update would be on

my rock climbing experience.

as most of you know --

i have a fear of height.

anything higher than 2 meters without

a safety barrier between me and the vast

empty chasm of air molecules

would get my hands sweaty and

legs shaking.

so i took this challenge.

i went with my cell group

but the day came when few bravehearts ==

arrived at camp5 at 1 utama.

when i arrived at the entrance,

childrens not taller than me were busy scalling the

walls.

damn memalukan k when i saw

their expertise.

some went up came down just to do it again.

so i decided to sit out first and watch my friends

do it.

haha.

among us only miriam, andrew and nat were

knowledgeable and skillful enough to do it.

colin, rachael and denise (and me )

were still new at this.

so colin attempt to do it first.

miriam was the belay.

belay is the one at the bottom holding on the rope

attached to the person scalling the wall.

so in any case the person scalling the wall falls,

the belay acts as a weight to hold the in mid air.

so colin went 1st round and came down quick enough

on his first attempt.

lol.... i thought it was easy that i

did not think it was tough.

denise went and she came down fast enough...

lol..... 1/4 of the whole wall.

when it was my turn, i came down after 1/2 of the wall.

wtf

i imagine i could go up to the top.

lol.. 1st attempt mah.

then i got the courage to go again with miriam.

lol... this time with my friends encourangement, i reached the top.

like the top.

but i only have 10 secs to savour the moment

when my endorphines wore off and adrenalin came back.

my heart was pumping when i look down

and saw the distance between me and the solid ground.

anyways, thanks to andrew for his brialliant idea to get extreme --

rach mim and denise for their encouragement.

colin and nat who pestered me to go again --

vasan who did not let me go.. i mean the rope.

denise's mom who fetched me there.

anyways moving on.

just 2 hours of tiring rock climbing, i went to jess's

WATERMELON PARTY.

lol... i drove there.

and since i drove there, i am clueless about the

directions.

so i counted on my dad's gps to guide me there.

nowadays, gps is a damn useful gadget besides your phone and

ipod.

expecially jess's place.

damn ulu man.

all the way, i was doubting about the gps

capabilities because i was passing by tress and

other nature products --

haha

but thanks to jess i managed to get to her house.

to my surprise the address she gave me was a quite home

with two puppies barking at me --

lol... the add she gave me wasnt the venue of the party.

so much of detailed info --

neways, the party was a blast.

i never sang my heart out like that day --

in fact.. i never sing in karaokes

and the ddr was fun...

not to say it was easy...

challenge is fun except for organic chemistry.

spend the next few days looking for a new guitar.

finally i got this yamaha f310.

pretty sweet. the frets are nicely spaced and

the neck is just so slim.

anyways.... gotta sleep now
