Until Cyberjaya Came Along…

My brain is jumbled up with thoughts right now. However, I suppose words can’t describe perfectly what I am feeling. Though, I’ll try my best to make it as sincere as possible.

Here goes:
There is a reason why I decided to write this entry. For almost a year living in Cyberjaya campus, I can’t seem to move on. Maybe I am stuck in this particular time zone and cannot walk out of it. I hate changes. I remembered vividly when it’s time to enter MMU Malacca campus. I am filled with mixed emotions; fear, excitement, sad, and so many others. I am sad to leave my secondary school friends, but excited to see what lies ahead in the future. I feared to make changes.

Soon, after I eventually managed to cope with the new environment, things went well. Thank god for that! I made new friends and led a happy life. As they say, when humans lived together, there’s sure to be conflicts and controversies. It is undeniable fights, conflicts and controversies do occur, but we put those differences aside to overcome whatever that comes our way. Along the way, here is a list of people I really treasured in my life as they made my stay in Malacca campus a memorable one (in no particular order the hostel residents):

-Nik
-Meisiem (in Cyberjaya now)
-Yee Chian
-Yunn Jiuan
-Wayne
-Kak Nora
-Kak Fiza
-Kak Alia
-Kak Mira
-Kak Icun
-Abang Syafiq
-Faris
-TY
-Bala
-Sheel
-Darrel
-Guan Hao & his roommate, Wai Yan
-Kah Yan
-Wenn Yit (in Cyberjaya also, but seldom meet each other mainly due to different faculty)
-Nicole Seow

Even Mr. Meor and Kak Nora (hostel officer) are good and friendly.

One year passed by real fast and it’s time for me to say goodbye to Malacca campus. I had made my decision to further on my studies in Cyberjaya campus which I always hope to be as good as before. Somehow, when I am in Cyberjaya, I am not coping really well or perhaps, I refused to change. I wanted to be in the comfort zone that I have been in all this while, Malacca. I have read somewhere; people are constantly going through changes, then where are my changes? It appears to me that I am not changing, but I don’t know from others point of view though from my view on other people, I sensed tremendous changes going on around them – pursuing popularity, trying to excel by using other smartasses as stepping stone, and backstabbing routines. It is all so obvious. I can’t live a day as carefree as those in Malacca. Even when I am trying to stay neutral, people will just drag me along with their conflicts. Anyway, I really hope that after this one week break, I might be able to fit in as life goes on.

Kenangan terindah.
To all my friends in Malacca, you will be remembered 4ever!
Missing each and every one of you!

Dear accuser(s),

Just stop throwing me with false accusations. You’re not me therefore you don’t know me. Stop spreading false statements about me to other people. I am just a university student trying to lead a life like any other normal university student out there. Just leave me out of your world which is obviously full of controversies. Well, in case you did not notice, I am currently having a one week midterm break, so I hope to lead a neutral life once I start my new week. To be honest, I might appear weird, or whatsoever you can call me, but do not interpret me. As aforementioned in my previous entry, I gave mysterious feeling, and I know you people out there love to interpret this. Such sensitive being(s). Please, please better update yourselves on the juiciest gossips revolving around celebrities you like (My advice: watch Channel 712 on Astro Variety package, E! It's much more entertaining!). Toddles!

YOU KNOW WHO YOU ARE!

P/s: To those who might have heard of such accusations about me, please don’t believe a word because if it’s true, you have probably heard it from me first as I rather create my own gossips =P

Sometimes...

Sometimes I don't understand myself but, do other people understand me? I DOUBT. This is because people often misinterpreted my messages. When I meant good, people will take it as bad. When I am dead serious, people think of it as a joke. Many times (not once), people interpreted my messages wrongly and revealed the wrongly interpreted messages causing my reputation to be in jeopardy. Somehow, little do we know, humans often think they are smarter than other humans, know more than other humans…(the list goes on). Perhaps, I do give people a mysterious feeling. One thing is I don’t usually reveal my thoughts because some things are better kept unknown fearing another case of misinterpreted message. There might be a whole lot more at stake.

Here, I would like to comment on my previous entry: Trustee/Truster. To be frank, it is purely based on inspiration. Unfortunately, I just found out recently that what I wrote was a perfect fit to one of my situation which was a bad thing. Opps! Too much information, I can’t reveal till the time is right. Here goes another mysterious me....

Trustee/Truster

TRUST: a mere five alphabets word that plays an important role in life (particularly mine). I encountered various incidents in my daily life that I can link to the word 'trust'.

One (or maybe just me) might question:

• (On April Fool Day) Should I trust my friends, whilst fearing whether things they convey are solely a prank or not?
• (On being introduce to a new product) Should I trust the quality of it? Does it work superbly on my face (in this case facial foam, perhaps)?
• (On gambling, especially when playing Black Jack) Should I trust my instinct to take five cards to earn a triple payback? What will the next card be?
• (On sharing personal information) Is my friend trustworthy enough to keep my secrets?
• (On losing virginity, in this case that doesn't really apply to me) Is he going to marry me after I gave him sex? What if he doesn't? Should I trust him? What can I do to claim back my virginity?

I still remember clearly coming across some Windows Live Messenger personal message that roughly sounded like this:

"Trust no one but yourself."

"When you feel like you can trust someone, betrayal start to occur."

No doubt there are more scenarios out there that require one to think rationally in order to trust something or someone. To trust, we need skills and experiences. It is a risk to take as betrayal can occur in any circumstances. To be frank, I myself had seen much of betrayal than happy ending when practicing 'trust'. So, be sure to take calculated risk to avoid being hurt by your own decision.

Jmpr

Jmpr stands for Jumper.

I was in TGV Sunway Pyramid yesterday to watch AVP2 with Ben when I notice this upcoming new movie "Jumper". The trailer is good, but I know trailer can be deceiving. Things can always be too good to be true. Well, I guess I will have to wait for it to release and see if it's worth my money.

The casts of Jumper are awesome to me. I am always a fan of Hayden Christensen's acting since he acted in Star Wars and Life as a House. Then we have Rachel Bilson. If you're fanatic over The O.C. then you'll know who she is - Summer Roberts. The next in line will be Jamie Bell. No doubt he is popular during his time in Billy Elliot followed by King Kong. He is also the guy in Green Day's video Wake Me up When September Ends. Samuel L. Jackson also starred in this movie.

Jumper is basically about this guy David that has the ability to teleport. A movie will be boring without some action, so we have the people that hunt down those jumpers.

Here is an excerpt of the synopsis courtesy of Apple Trailer:

"A genetic anomaly allows a young man to teleport himself anywhere. He discovers this gift has existed for centuries and finds himself in a war that has been raging for thousands of years between "Jumpers" and those who have sworn to kill them."

I can't wait for it to be release and I'll definitely head to the cinema for it.

Holiday

I got nothing better to do so I decided to play around with photoshop. Here (on top) is something I sort of make out of it. It's a bit simple.

***

So, I drove to cyber from my house in Putra Heights yesterday. LOL! Actually, this is my first time so it is some kind of accomplishment for me. All of this just to register for MUET. How pathetic!


By the way, I want to declare that:


"HOLIDAY MODE ACTIVATED for three weeks."


This means no more poring into books which is what I did during study weeks. Semester 2 had been extremely unbearable since we need to know everything in just mere seven weeks, as usual. I am so glad that it is over and am seriously looking forward to fill my holidays with activities. As far as I know, holidays can also be boring. So, I'll try my best to make it worthwhile this time around. Perhaps a New Year resolution: to make every holiday in 2008 a meaningful one. Hmm...a good one. Lol.


I think I should step foot into malls and cinemas pretty soon. It's been like ages I haven't been in touch with both the malls and the cinemas due to hectic schedule. Besides, I think I will also spend more time exploring photoshop (my so called latest amusement) as well as getting a healthier me. Here, I wan to emphasize that I am not saying I am previously unhealthy. It is just that I haven't really been exercising much. I used to love jogging back in my hometown. People do think that I gained a pound or two.


I guess I'll just have to wait and see what I manage to do then.

Tagged 1.0

I got tagged by Goch, so here it goes. It is only an easy task.

1. Andy Lau? omg....speechless...never thought of it.

2. Lee Hyori... All I know is that she is a korean singer. Perhaps the shape of her face matches mine :-p

3. Misha Omar! At least I have the Malaysian blood in me for resembling a local artist. Speaking of her, she is one of my favourite local singer of all time...Bunga-bunga cinta~~Layu di pusaran.

4. Takeshi Kaneshiro! WOW with a capital letter. To be able to resemble him for 67% is so great. I am so flattered.

5. Mika Nakashima... She is one of my favourite jap artist, portraying Nana based on a manga of the same name and singing the theme song Glamorous Sky...she is sizzling hot!

6. Takuya Kimura... I remember him. He is the actor of japanese drama "Long Vacation" which was aired on TV3 ages ago. I vividly recall seeing him as the face of Levi's too once when I was walking around shopping complexes back in my schooling days. Maybe one day I can be Levi's ambassador as well. Who knows?! >.<

7. Michelle Williams! She is the star of Dawson's Creek and also a brokeback hottie. I adore her acting skills during Dawson's Creek as Jen Lindley. Plus, she gave an outstanding, highly emotional performance in Brokeback Mountain. I wonder which part of me looks like her...

8. Sho Sakurai? I totally got no idea who he is.

Anyway, do try this fun thing.

Randomness Rants

Since I already logged in to customize the layout of my blog, I can't help myself not to write something down. I am currently procrastinating to write an entry perhaps due to lack of inspiration.

Besides, my sleeping time had been getting way out of hand. Assignments and all the workloads I have been getting (not to mention outings) just turn me into a zombie lurking into the night. Yes, that is so true or maybe...not. I guess it is the latter. I might be the one getting hunted by zombies. You see, I have been doing assignments at my friend's house in Cyberia and walked all the way back to campus after midnight. The latest would be about 4 am. As the gate to the guy's dorm (trying to sound a bit 'standard') is closed after 1 am, I have to walk all the way back using a long, dark, deserted way. Scary sial!!!

I am glad all the sleepless nights poring into assignments are over for now but I still can't get my sleeping habit to be back to the way it has been before. Looks like I have to get used to being a night owl until everything appears right. Looking at the bright side, not sleeping through the wee hours actually gives me time to explore Adobe Photoshop. It will be my latest amusement in the mean time.

Today is also 25th December so, Merry X'Mas everyone.

Things I like about Christmas are the carols as well as snow (it's summer in Australia and Malaysia don't have snow but it's still something to talk about when it comes to Christmas) to name a few. I have always wanted to try the "kissing under the mistletoe tradition" too. (perhaps one day :P)

*******************************************
I'm dreaming of a white Christmas,
Rudolph the red nose reindeer,
Santa Claus is coming to town,
Silent night, holy night,
Santa baby, hurry down the chimney tonight,
Hark! The Herald Angels sing,

Emotional Entry

3.10 AM and counting...*Lights off except for the table lamp*

I think this is my first time writing something that involved my emotions so badly. I felt like swearing every single rude word I can think of at that particular person. That person is such a pain in the ass. Damn it. I can't even study and complete my assignment which is due on Monday because of that person.

I know it is indeed my responsibility that I took the job, but please appreciate what I had to offer. I know I am not a professional in your eyes, but at least give me some utter respect. Even if you don't like what I did, you can just spit it out in front of my face (I don't mind getting my face all wet because of your saliva). Do not...I repeat, Do not ever call other people to finish my not-professional-in-your-eyes-job!!!!

Ok. First, I have to clarify that I am not someone that cannot handle criticism. Bring it on!!! If you want to critic, please do it. I can change because I know I am not perfect. Can you imagine out of sudden you receive your own work but being upgraded to something that doesn't belong to you?Where is my originality? I must admit that what I done look ordinary if compared to the upgraded version. So sue me. You can tell me politely and nicely instead of calling other people to fix it.

I felt so much better now. Thanks to my dear blog and Michael Buble's Home which Westlife cover their own version of it for their latest album. All this just cheer me up.

Can you see what I see?

Hello all, I know I have been idle from blogging since like forever. Well, the wait is over. The fact is that I got so many things to write about but I just can't force myself to do so. Most probably it's due to my utter laziness. I better get my “lazy ass” to work. On the other hand, to think of it, disappearance of me for some time and come back, that would be a superb fun thing to do. We see most of the time in the entertainment industries, artistes come and go like nobody’s business.

There is this thing I noticed today during my class in XR1005 for Digital Logic Design. As you can see in this picture, the particular two rows are empty while others are fully occupied with students. To me, this is very odd so I decided to post it here. We were sort of joking about seeing people there. Creepy!

One funny thing I saw in the picture was the fact that I can see students dozing off in class. All I can say is: who doesn't? Some people might know what I am trying to emphasize here so I better not further my elaboration as I do not wish to be sued by anyone particularly *tut*. The hint: you aLready know who is thAt.

Till my next post.
