One Step At A Time

I remember when my cousin introduced me this song, I was like " Oh, ok." But in my heart, I was like "Yer! Not nice!" LOL!! That was roughly 6 years ago (2003). Hahaha! 2 or 3 years later I saw the live performance of this song, my jaw dropped. I was SPEECHLESS!! From that moment onwards, I was in love with both versions. It's Kelly Clarkson's Miss Independent. She was performing at the AOL sessions.

The recorded version of the song...




And here's the live version!



I hope you've enjoyed that flawless performance... Adios!

Yesterday was the Martial Arts Night 2009. I was one of the working committees for this event. I gotta tell you guys, getting involved in events during a short semester is freaking tiring, becuz during a short sem, the period is shortened by half of the normal semester, then the work is doubled. We have to learn things twice the speed. For example, normally we learn one chapter per week, now it seems like 2 chapters per week and we have to absorb all that into our brain in 3 weeks, then we are expected to be ready for the midterm. Plus, assignments one after the other (I'm talking about engineering graphics, LOL!), no kidding! Every week we will have one from Engine. Graphics. Oh fuck that! XD!

Anyhow, there's much experience to gain from this tiring and hectic semester. Well it's not like this is the first time I've experienced this, hehe! Let's get back to the purpose I've written this post, shall we? LOL!

Well, I was the working committee for the event. I was in the publicity division, I didn't help much though. Instead, I went and find sponsors, last semester. Great experience! And, I went to help backstage yesterday. It was so busy. You have to be alert at all time, be thinking what's next, what-if problems and so on. One mistake, the whole show goes down, no I'm just kidding. Maybe just get embarrassed a little. Oh well, I had fun! =)

Last time, I used to think what happened backstage, or when the curtains closed. Haha, I've finally got that feeling. I did take some pictures and videos, but they weren't great. Oh ya, in the middle of the show, my "Big Sis" aka Da Jie aka Qiao Hui called. XD! So many names. Someone was supposed to send her to Melaka Central but couldn't make it. She called me but I couldn't either. Sorry ar Da Jie, XD!

To be honest, the show was a little sad. Small crowd, and the story line of the drama was a little dull. Haih...

~ I'm already gone~ already gone~ You can't make it feel right~ When you know that it's wrong~~ Ahem, forgive me, this is what's stuck in my head now. LOL! Aight... until next post... ciaoz!

Hooh, finally I got some time to update my almost-abandoned blog . Haha! I've been very busy these two weeks. I just finished my Engineering Graphics assignment. That was hell lotta work. It's not that hard, just to keep the neatness and accuracy of your drawing. One freaking millimeter out of place... *smirk* prepare to draw it all over again. O.o well, that's how it works if you wanna get perfect score.

Speaking of this subject... I don't really like this lecturer. He just wants a piece of me, like finding fault... no but I dont really like him. This is just personal, so I'm not trying to hate anyone or something. He's a good lecturer.. so... haha!

After tomorrow, it will be like another-load-is-gone, cuz Engineering Graphics midterm and the Malaysian Studies research project will be over. Then all it's left is the Materials Science midterm. Yaiks... I'm doomed! I'll be like headless or something.. No really, something tells me that it's not gonna be easy. Gotta work hard, gotta try no matter what, I don't want the same thing to happen again. I know, I've said it like a billion times. ~~I gotta be strong~ Just keep pushing on!~~ ignore me...Haha!

Oh well.. until next post. Peace out!

Okay, I'm in this collaboration division of the IET (Institution of Engineering and Technology) Society. We organised a trip to SDC (Solar District Cooling) in Puchong. Trip containing 40 people, 1 lecturer, bla bla bla, you dont wanna hear the rest. Promoting this trip was like a peice of cake. You wanna know why? With the help of my respectful president of this society, Willie... OMG, everything seemed so easy. He handled everything with a calm piece of mind, when our division was like what-to-do. I learnt a lot from him organising this trip. So I thank him so much. XD! The attractive thing about this field trip was, the price, RM 7. Imagine, with RM 7, you get a FREE buffet lunch and drop by Sunway Pyramid. That's not just any buffet, a buffet which includes prawns, fish, lala, and more.






Well we took approximately 2 hours to get there. The staffs there were super friendly. Except one, the first one who took us around. I think he had a bad day. LOL!! Well, this is working life. Haha! Anyways, we went to to Sunway Pyramid around 2 something. I was like torn between Redbox and Ice Skating. 2 weeks ago I was there and didn't wanna go skating cuz my feet was hurt. This time, I had a free redhead charge coupon from Redbox. So I was thinking... then I overheard someone at the back discussing about choosing Redbox or go skating. One of them said, " If you go to Redbox, 10 people, one enjoys (cuz only one mic or two). Skating, 10 people, 10 enjoy!" So I chose skating with a heavy heart... LOL! Went in.. I was freaking terrified. It's not as easy as it seems, with all the balancing. Yi Yong and I were like... let me think... ya! like a cat standing at the very edge of a 100 stories high building, no where to go and about to fall. We skated... no, we walked very very very slowly, gripping the wall very very tightly. Hahahahah! I think you can imagine how we looked like. Hahahha! After walking for like 1/4 of the rink, I heard a scream. I looked to the back very slowly cuz if i make sudden movement I will definately fall. There I saw Yi Yong sitting on the ice. Hahahhahah! My god, I went to her slowly and pulled her up, but she can't get up, it was too slippery. Then one couple came and said that Yi Yong has to kneel in order to get up. LOL!

I don't know what's wrong with me but I seriously need to bo more alert. Why? Look at these 2 photos... XD!


Where was I, oh ya, I had to practice for almost 3 hours to be able to skate. Gosh! Thanks to Wen Jun, Jerome, Jan Fei and Chun Jiun. Especially Chun Jiun and Jan Fei. They tought me, haha! It was like learning how to walk, they held my hands and told me to do it slowly and bla bla bla. LOL! It's a fun experience! I wanna do it again! Woopee!

Suddenly I woke up and everything was dark. Completely dark... I thought I was blind. Don't laugh cuz this experience is scary. I blinked my eyes, but it was still the same, no change. I put my hand in front of my face, I can't see it. Gosh! Then I could hear my mum calling my dad from downstairs (FYI... I sleep downstairs, yes, maid's room XD)... that was only then I knew that there's a blackout. I reached for my phone right next to me and unlocked it. Man!! It was only 3 o'clock. My mum was in the living room, prolly was watching her Korean Drama till late. So i turned switch on my phone's flashlight application I just downloaded days ago(thank god!). I went to go get my Mum, brought her to the store room to find some torches. She went up to sleep. The whole neighbourhood was so dark. Last time, at least there was some streetlight. Now, none! The electricity came back around 5.45 in the morning.




Haha! The Whiteout I wanted to talk about is a movie. I watched it at Sunway Pyramid that day.This movie is not bad... starring Kate Beckinsale. Check out the poster... pretty cool.

Alright guys, I'm preparing for my next class. Ciaoz~

Last week during the 2 weeks break (ya 2 weeks... DAMN MMU for this! XD) I went to Sunway Lagoon with my MMU friends. It was a little boring but I had a blast. Prolly it's because I went there 2 years ago and nothing has changed. Hooh... I can't tell you how tiring the trip was, well my legs literally broke, my shoulder literally dislocated, and my eyes... dried up! Hahaha! Ok... here's what happened. I went to my grandma's house, stayed there for 3 days, then went all the way down to JB to find Wen Jun then to Seremban to meet Jan Fei, Kim San and Yi Yong, later travel up to Sunway!

Oh, speaking of JB, Larkin Sentral is the worst nightmare!! Everything is so messy, people selling tickets without a counter, people yelling, children running up and down, and some people, the give you the face of you-wanna-piece-of me! I don't know if the ticket seller ever realise that there is such thing as Customer's Rights or Hak Pengguna. You see, I wanted to walk to McDonalds from one end. Then along the way, there were several ticket counters of different bus company. Each of everyone of them kept asking the same question, " Dik, nak pergi mane?", "Pukup berape?", "Skrang boleh?". That time I had to wait for Wen Jun to come so I just said, "Tunggu kawan." I don't know how many times I said that. Lets say if there were 10 counters along the way, then I have said 10 times. My Gawd! Kay, long story cut short...

-When Wen Jun arrived, a man came and said, "Oh, kawan lu dah sampai, skrang boleh? Dua stengah?"
-Wen Jun was like, " Bus ape?"
-Then he said, "Duuu, bus tu kat sana. Eh, bawak dua budak ni pergi ke bus."

And so we walked with the guy and he showed us the bus. IMMEDIATELY, he started issuing tickets. WTF! Wen Jun rejected. Why? Firstly, the bus looks STOOPID! Secondly, I don't think the bus has a freakin name, no company. Of course Wen Jun rejected la...

-Just after that, Hwah! another guy came and said, "Mari, duduk bas ni. Bas ni VIP seat! Bagus punye!"

Another one, same case, looks nameless. Cuz only "Express" is written, it looked like there was a name before it but was scrapped off. Who would have trusted that? And of course, Wen Jun said no.. the man was furious, started shouting. Come on la... we have the right to choose which bus we wanna get on. Argh, then we went to browse for bus companies. We were familiar with Transnasional. So as we were reaching the counter... my god i tell you... people from no where came flocking to us wanting to sell us tickets.

-One guy said, "Hey, where are you going? Seremban? Now can? 2.30..."
-Wen Jun said, " What bus is this? How much?" (He didn't answer the first question)
-He said, "I give you cheap cheap, no where else can get. RM 27 (if I'm not mistaken)"

Hahahhaha! It so funny that the guy said that. Transnasional counter was just right in front of our freakin eyes. The price was stated RM 25.90. Of course we asked, but the man said that that is for economical and his is for business. "Haiya, just one ringgit won't hurt." My ass... won't hurt! XD! We had no choice but to buy the tickets cuz it's already 2.28pm, unless we were willing to wait till 3.30. God no! After buying, the guy brought us to the bus. Guess what?! It was the same damn bus. Ooh!! Remember the angry man earlier on I talked about? He saw us.

-He started cursing foul words! "Lancau lu! Tadi suruh kau naik tak mau!! Skrang baru nak naik bas aku! Pergi mampus la babi cina!!"

How discriminating... He kept repeating that same sickening sentence over and over again. Wen Jun just looked at him. XD!! We didn't care till the bus left.

Oh ya, we almost got sent to KL, cuz the bus stopped at Petronas opposite Terminal 1. It was raining, so we were expecting the bus to make a U-turn. But it didn't. Luckily we were dropped at Mobil at S2. Thank god! Hehehe! Put a night at Jan Fei's house then the next day to Sunway. Stayed at Sun Inn Hotel (not sure how you spell it). Then fun at Sunway Lagoon. The next day... my legs were tired, so I didn't join Wen Jun, Jan Fei, and Kim San for ice-skating. I went to Redbox with Yi Yong. Yah, only the 2 of us. So fun!! Seriously, it's REDBOX! LOL!! They have a lot of new songs that Dreambox doesn't have. Oh, Melaka sucks... in some ways. Hehe! I hope when the new Jusco opens, Redbox will be opened as well. Yay!




For more photos on this trip, you guys can head to Wen Jun's blog. I ripped these photos from his Facebook account. Thanks WenJun.

Yeah so the new trimester just started yesterday. I'm taking Materials Science, Engineering Graphics 1 and Malaysian Studies. What's that you may ask... well that's Sejarah. Just that it's in English. Lame! Last trimester's results will be released this thursday. OMG! I'm so nervous! Just let me pass this round and I promise I'll be hardworking! T.T

Toodles... I'm blogging from MMU and gonna go home to be fed. XD!


PS - Wen Jun, you told me that I don't have to tell everyone bout it. I just did so deal with it. XD!!

Hey guys... I guess that you all have heard that Ellen DeGeneres will be replacing Paula Abdul as a judge on the next season of American Idol. I'm a little sad that Paula's leaving, but hey, look who's coming. It's Ellen!!! Woohoo! I went to my friend's house a few days ago, he showed me a video from Youtube. It's Ellen's Bathroom Concert Series. This episode featured the super-talented-huge-vocal-American-Idol-Season-3-finalist, Jennifer Hudson. Oh my goodness, what a voice, and Ellen, she was FREAKING hilarious!! I'm sure some of you have watched Dreamgirls. Well, they sang the hit song from it, And I'm Telling You. Jennifer starred in the movie and sang the song off!! If you have not watched the movie, the first video that I'm gonna post here is the song. The second video is the one Ellen singing with Jennifer. Enjoy peeps!! Laugh your a$$ out. XD





Peace Out!
