Don't ask why!
There were a hell lot of questions, and a i-still-dun-understand-eventhough-i-look-and-look-again-and-again comprehension. As far as I’m concerned, I didn’t offended my German lecturer leh, how come she created such a killer paper eh??
Since I was a toddler, I used to ask all those W-questions (Why, Where, What, Who, How etc). My grandma and parents were “scared” of me, and they said I’m “jiao geh” = bird’s teeth; always chi chi chuk chuk nonstop asking this and that. Making them headache.
But, in this German, those Verb Conjugations, Grammar rules, vocabulary and so on are sometimes unquestionable, i.e. you have to accept it as what it is and memorize it by hard. Don’t ask why, coz the lecturer won’t know as well, and I bet the only person who knows would be the person who created it. So, just “swallow” whatever you can.
Coincidentally, same situation like this also happened when I was studying for my Advanced Electromagnetic Theory. There were times where the equations or a value just suddenly appeared without me knowing why. Due to lack of time to consult lecturer, I just memorize loh. What to do leh?
Sometimes life resembles similar situation as well. Don’t ask why you’re born into this world; don’t ask why you’re a male/female; don’t ask why you’re this race or that race etc, coz you’ll never know.
Life is simple and short. Ohh don’t ask me why.

My New Year Eve with Ninja Turtles
After the test, immediately Sweewon and I decided to go to Alamanda at 4:15pm. The reason behind this is – if we were to stay longer in our room, we will fail to resist the killer-attraction of our darling beds, which keep on flirting with us. Ohh…And I won’t be able to get up within 4 hrs as I slept very little that "morning".
We met with Carol and Hanni in the bus later, and headed to ERL station then changed bus to Alamanda --- RM1 from Cyberjaya to ERL; RM0.50 from ERL to Alamanda. It’s quite cheap.
We stormed to the Food Court in the first place to get our stomachs filled.
Then…out of our conscious, we were at the Barbie Doll’s area. We spent a long time looking and touching and discussing about most of the Barbies there. Then only we proceeded for some window-shopping.
“Eh, Ninja Turtles!!” *I was almost jumping up and down*
We saw Ninja Turtles at the stage near the Barbie Doll’s area. Some kids are taking photos with them. I was like --- I also want to take photo with them. But, they’re gone in a while. So I was :( However, an announcement by the MC that the Ninja Turtles will be coming back at 7pm made my day wahahahhaha!!
We were down at the Barbies place once again, wasting time waiting for 7pm.
At 7pm, 4 ordinary black ninja’s cosplays [the bad guys] came out onto the stage and performing various fighting styles. Next, the 4 genuine Ninja Turtles (Purple, Red, Blue and Orange) appeared to fight the bad ninjas.



Before that, I forgot to mention, in front of the stage were a bunch of kids sitting on the floor, and behind were their parents. The four of us were the weird scene there. Can you imagine four 20+ girls standing among the kids + parents, looking anxiously at the stage, and laughed crazily at the scenes when Ninja Turtles defeating the bad one while the kids were cheering happily at their heroes??? The bad guy actually fell or flied out even though the Ninja feet tak kena his body :))
After the fighting, the Orange Ninja suddenly merajuk and sit on the floor, refused to response to the Red Ninja who was comforting him. Then the song “Kungfu Fighting” was played, but the Orange Ninja still unhappy. So, the MC said, “Maybe he doesn’t like the song, let’s change to another song.” “That’s the way aha aha I like it aha aha…” was played and the Orange Ninja got up and dance. All 4 of the Ninjas were dancing *aha aha*
Merajuk-ing

~ That's the way aha aha i like it aha aha ~

Next was of course the photo taking session. The MC was shouting sth like this “Come on kids, if you wana take photos with this Ninja Turtles, just come up to the stage! bla bla bla.” I was like, errrr….kids, I’m not one, I will be very paiseh if I was to step onto the stage. Meanwhile, Hanni, Carol and Sweewon were trying to convince, or push me to walk towards the stage. When we were at the left side of the stage, all of sudden the MC came to us and said (in Mandarin), “If you want to take photo, go to the other side to catch them for photos lah.”
Immediately we run to the other side and manage to catch the Purple and Orange Ninjas, muahaahhaaha. Then, we went back to the MC.

Mr. MC: Managed to catch them?
Hanni & I: Yes *nodding our heads*
And this time around, hanni and I requested to take a photo with him.
Mr. MC: Why? I’m not Ninjas also. *with some shocked reaction*
His friend: Ask you take then you take lah! (in Cantonese)
Mr. MC that helped us :)

Additionally, I reckoned that the MC can speak fluently in English, Malay, Mandarin and Cantonese. Wow!
Done with shopping, we went to eat cakes and chit-chatting.
Took another few photos before going out of Alamanda. It was 11pm then.

Presenting the Red Leaves...

We waited for bus but none of them want to take us. The other 4 girls who were having the same fate as us told us that the buses will only take people after the countdown. What the…We decided to called someone and the first candidate was Zhao :p When we knew he will be coming to pick us up in 15 minutes time, we were so touched =)) Thank you very much Zhao, you’re so nice. I'll remember this for the whole year *hiak hiak* only. Just kidding.
So, this is my New Year eve with Ninja Turtles and the fong-fei-kei buses. Definitely better than last year!
How’s yours?

Worry worries
I feel anxious and helpless.

Ooh...helpless :(
I’m worry that our CCIP Music Division couldn’t get enough sub-comms.
I’m worry that our division cannot produce any outcomes.
I dunno what to update on this coming meeting.
Am I the only one who worry that much bout this?
And, I’m worry about my German midterm on this Sat.
Also, I’m worry bout my final exams which are in less than 2 weeks time.
Just plain worries!

ANgelic side
Nevertheless, come to think about it, i think the best way to not frustrated ourself too much would be -- try to think of the angelic side of them, and of the goodness that they have done to you or others. Then, we will feel better and have a feeling that they are not that bad at all.
But, if you couldn't think of the goodness they've ever done, try to search through other people. If still none, then i don't think they will be in your thoughts any more, no?
There's a saying in Chinese which means something like this ---- learn the goodnesses of others, and treat their weaknesses as an alarm for you not to do anything similar.
Well, try to look in different perspectives, we'll see a more beautiful world, and soul :)

Narnia in TGV KLCC
The golden Christmas tree in KLCC. You see, i'm aligning the top and bottom view of the Christmas tree so that it can transform into a complete one :> There're 2 reindeers accompanying the Christmas tree. Will post a close up look of the reindeers......... after these 2 photos :))


The famous Rudolph the red nose reindeers -- but i fail to see any red nose here though.
The other side of the Christmas tree --- the Kids area. Ya, adult (like us) is PROHIBITED! Mummy.....waawawawawawa :((


P/s: All the photos above were taken after the movie.
Now, come to talk about The Chronicles of Narnia: The Lion, The Witch & The Wardrobe. I've been craving to watch this movie half year ago when it started its advertiments and trailer on TV *wow* I like to see exotic creatures in it that are non-existing in the real world. They speak English too!!!!! Eg. The Centaur (half man half horse) & the Faun (half man half deer). And, i love snow! There're plenty of snow scene in the movie.
Besides, i admire the wise Aslan the almighty lion king in the movie too. He has the wisdom and kindness which made him a trustworthy King of Narnia. Also, the beavers are super cute ;)
See, we watched 2 movies in a day. Crazy? I say no. Coz this is not the first time i did this hehehhe. In 2003, I watched The League of Extraordinary Gentlemen [starring Sean Connery and others] & 大只佬 [starring Andy Lau and Ceceilia Cheung] in one day too. And not to mention, i went for LOTR marathon *yeah i have the cert* 12 crazy hours i bet cha.
With this, i'm off to perform my duty for today.
King Kong in IMAX
The lift there were very very slow, and we're in a hurry. So, we ran up the elevator for 10 floors *whew* It's tiring.
After getting the tickets, we sit there waiting while took some photos. The photo below was took in front of the "rainbow wall -- i named it" at the entrance to the cinemas. Swee won did took pictures of the theme park there, head over to have some glances.
I can say that King Kong is kinda touching movie, just like its predecessors in old times. Hey I watched King KOng since i was a kid. This time around, the leading actress is Naomi Watts (known as Ann Darrow in the movie -- pretty & attractive) , while the leading actor is Adrien Brody (known as Jack Driscoll in the movie -- a charming guy). And of course, the KIng Kong. Besides, the character Carl Deham (a filmmaker in the movie) is very annoying, i just feel like punching his shrewd face, esp his eyes. He's the one that deserve to die the most, but he lives -- bad guys live longer eh?
Anyway, below is the Christmas tree in Times Square, photo taken after the 3 hrs movie.

The lighting decorations that present the Christmas feels, in Times Square as well. Can you see the crowd? Yes, there's alot of people.
Next, we're heading to KLCC for the nect movie :> hehehheehhe... We certainly know how to enjoy our life no?
Christmas 2003-2004-2005
Christmas 2003 @ KLCC [L-R: Yeejen , Swee Won , me]
Christmas 2004 @ KLCC [me & Hanni]
So, we "unintentionally" took photos with the 33metres almighty Christmas tree in KLCC as background for 3 years straight! :O
I really feel time flies from the tip of my fingers without me noticing it. It's been 3 years! Not a short period. I've even turned from the 18 green-apple age to the i-can-vote-legally age. You get me don't you?
Oh gosh, i feel so old :(
Well, the 3 photos are just for you to make some comparison when you're bored.
Do you noticed that the Christmas tree's decoration are the same for year 2003 & 2004? It's in purple color. Whereas year 2005 is the elegant shiny golden decoration. I like it.
Btw, do you noticed also that my shirt for year 2003 & 2005 are the same? *blush* It's an coincidence OK!! Coz i didn't expect to take picture in KLCC initially. Do you believe me? I hope you do.
I still have 2 or 3 posts in mind. SO do wait for the updates. Cheers!
Happy New Year peeps!

The usual me
Wasting my time like none of my own business.
Though I keep on reminding myself to study study and study, but it’s effortless.
I still feel like sleeping whenever I’m in my room, or when I’m touching my notes.
It’s such an uncontrollable situation, which I should stop it and find back my self-disciplined self.
Well, think I should kill the sleeping @ lazy worms within me, and perhaps grow some hardworking worms inside.
Let’s fong chiong siong ngan and see whether I can transform myself throughout this trimester.
Wait for the outcome on the end of this trimester ;)

Sharing moment
Come come, have a look at what I’ve received for my birthday this year ;)
Ray, Swee won, Alister, Yinghan and Carol gave me Nicholas Teo’s 张栋梁 latest CD, with the title track called “只在乎你 dearly love you”. Another highlighted song is 日日夜夜 (Every Day and Night). I had a meal at The WestWood restaurant in Kuching with Swee won, Ray and Alister when they past the CD to me that night.
The CD front view


The CD rear view
Also, alongside with the CD are two paper files printed with Nicholas’s photos, 5 cute badges and 4 posters, which were nicely placed inside an elegant pink color plastic bag.
The 5 badges

See the pink bag under the five badges? It doesn’t look good in the picture, but it certainly does in reality. Photograph can be deceiving :)
Now, let’s look at the wooden handmade comb from 谭木匠 which Hanni and other friends gave me. You know what?! This comb came exactly the right time coz my ex-comb has gone missing and another new one is a bit damaged :p

Notice the words “I like…decoration” under the comb? It’s actually the bottom part of the pink plastic bag. Am just putting the bag as a background for the wooden comb :D
One thing I’d like to highlight is that among the posters, there’s one printed with Power Rangers. I was surprised, stunned, and laughed my head off when I first opened it. Coz I’m already too old to own a Power Rangers product :p I do know that.
Next, here are pictures taken during the pre & post-birthday celebration at the TGI Friday’s, 1 Utama on 9th Sept. Why pre & post? Its bcoz our birthdays vary through August to October respectively.

6 of us cutting a big birthday cake.

6 cute little icons [they were sugar made] which were on top of the cake earlier.
L-R: The Garfield cat, tiger (mine), panda, rabbit, elephant & cow. Btw, do you notice that the Garfield's left eye is gone? ya, it's accidentally eaten =)) shhh, don't tell ohh!
Okay, lastly, I would like to dedicate a million thanks to the above mentioned friends for giving me those memorable moments and nice gifts. Appreciate it, you guys rock!

Hey ya!
Yup, I took German Level 1 as co-curricular subject this trimester. The phrases above mean “Hello! How are you?”
Tell you something, my German lecturer is a lovely German lady woh :p very tall as well. But due to some contracts problem, she’ll leave us in 2 weeks time, waaaa wa waaaa :(( Please please don’t go….I’ll miss her.
Alright, let’s recap some events happened during my holidays in Kuching. Of course, I did sleep and eat like a good baby kid. I watched “Corpse Bride”, an animated movie which emphasizes on unbounded love, owhhh…
By the way, Jia Xu paid a visit to Kuching during the holidays :> Then we five ladies went to The Cat Museum and took some, errr, stupid photos?? You figure it out.
~The Cat Ladies~
We did step our foot at the Water Front as well, and enjoy the riverbank views there, including the views at the opposite river bank. Oh yah, we looked at some uncles fishing for prawns and fishes there :D
Also, we (the five of us and a former tutor) went to a “house like” restaurant and order some drinks and chat through. Then, we were brought to the Little Hong Kong --- actually is the river bank view we saw from the Water Front. There’s a lot of food stalls and the houses are decorated with colorful bulbs due to the Hari Raya festival. Next, we proceeded to the outside of Astana. The surrounding view is beautiful, but we didn’t spend much time there.
Emmm, two little doggies become my family members during the holidays. Both are males. One of them --- Chu Chu is very clever and naughty, but he knows how to act so that you won’t punish it :)) Another one --- Ter Ter is not that naughty and more quiet. However, a bad news regarding Chu Chu’s death broke half of my heart on 19th Nov when I’m already in Cyberjaya. It’s sad that I can’t see it grows up :( May he rest in peace!
After coming back to Cyberjaya, me and friends went to watch the “Harry Potter And The Goblets Of Fire” on 18th Nov (Friday) at GSC MidValley. Well, I’m satisfied with the ups and downs in the movie, it attracts attention. Mayb it’s because I didn’t read the book, that’s why didn’t have any expectation, thus can’t compare :p
Okay, got to go now. Tschüss! (Bye! in German)

The Myth
The uniqueness of this song is undoubtedly where Jackie Chan 成龙 duets with Kim Hee-Seon 金喜善 in both Mandarin and Korean.
From the song, it can be perceived that their love last for thousand years and they still wait for each other in different time dimensions(worlds) despite all obstacles.
I'm gonna watch this movie after my exam, for sure. The song has triggered my inquisitiveness to ask for more. A very successful promotion, indeed :)
Btw, tomorrow or later in the afternoon, me gonna sit for the last paper for this trimester. Master Yoda: "May the force be with you, my young Jedi"
Then, hu la hu la here I come my dear holidays!
P/s: Will upload the song lyrics if time allowable :D

Out of our mind
1. “Why you’re taking my toothbrush? Do you know that taking other’s toothbrush to brush teeth is very impolite?” “I didn’t brush my teeth; I’m just brushing the shoes.”
2. “I like Maths class the most.” “Why?” “Bcoz our teacher always take leaves.”
I bet those girls dunno what the hell they are “hahahhahaha” for also. In fact, while watching the video, I’m worried that when their heads are gonna shaken off accidentally.
Due to the triggers of this music video clip, the 3 of us started to singing out loud, laughing out loud at each other, talking whatever craps that were in our mind, jumping up and down….until the guard came to knock on our door and slapped us on our foot. Then for sure we’re very angry and slapped the guard back, tied her up with bed sheet and locked her in our cupboard.
K lah, am just fooling around. There was no guard wahahahhaha >:p
We then sang happily, to name but a few: Nah si gua uh ji pa ban (If I have 1 million), Ai pia cha eh yia (Struggle only can win), the “hahahhahahhhaha…”, primary school’s songs – elephant nose song/frog song, 上海滩 “浪…奔……浪…流……”, etc etc I forgot others.
Actually, it was me and Yinghan singing most of the time, coz SweeWon dunno Hokkien, and she’s too stingy to share her lovely voice >:) Just joking, she’s 斯文有礼 and still can keep her cool in such a disastrous environment, whereas me and Yinghan lost our head d :p Sorry ahh Yinghan, I didn't meant to tell the truth *sob sobb*, but I'm a good girl :"> hehe
Frankly, this is one of the good ways to release stress, esp during this deadly tensed study-exam week. I think we had in one way or another laughed out our tension feeling.
I shall take my leave for now *bow* *waves hand*
P/s: Good girl tells no lies, except some white lies, ahemmm...

What more can I say huh?
Firstly, there’s someone pouring down water from the window above my floor and hit my table, my monitor near my window. I can’t move away my table coz it’s fixed. Damn it! I think that girl has a bird brain. And when the brain commands “Hey you moron, go on, go on, pour the water down from the window. Yeah, that’s the way it is, brilliant girl!”, then she would pour the water without any procrastination. Poor thing, being control by her bird brain.
Then, just now in the dawn, there’s another moron with prawn brain staying below my floor blast her speaker so loud that the whole Cyberjaya campus can hear. Sounds unbelievable? You better do. Actually the sound came up to our room window through her window. It’s some kind of video clips with Ang Moh cracking jokes that I would definitely not appreciate it in the middle of the night. So, can you imagine how loud that girl is opening her speaker?! Swee Won did go down and knocked her door, but you know, that moron’s prawn brain demanded that moron to ignore and keep on rocking with the loud sound.
Come on, why there’re increasingly so many inconsiderate humans? For god sake, please think for others lah.
P/s: Please forgive me for insulting the bird and the prawn O:-) *angelic look*

Last Week Preview
My 1st PCB board isn’t that satisfying – there’re a lot of small disconnections, which have to be re-connected manually by using the soldering iron. This happened due to my inexperienced first-time PCB fabrication, can’t expect much from me, right?!
So, I decided to fabricate another PCB. This time around, the lab technician was annoyed and lazy (I’m telling nothing but the truth *cross ma heart muahahhahahaha*) already.
He asked us to “sek ji kei” a.k.a. EAT OURSELVES!!
He helped us to laminate our PCBs (there’re a few of us, including a final year student) and we were on our own from there onwards. Then, he just went “kai kai”. We proceeded with the UV light – placing a layer of photoresist on our PCBs. We’re troubled by how many seconds we should put for the photoresist thingy :”> *maklumlah kan?*
Next, we went on with the Developer Tank and the Etcher Tank. These 2 processes required a lot of attention and patient. We had to keep on “nurturing” our PCBs from time to time, worrying that the PCBs might over-develop or over-etch. If either of this happens, then the PCBs are declared KO already! Which means -- you have to START EVERYTHING all over again! Gosh, imagine that *head spinning with full kinetic energy*
Fortunately we didn’t blow up the two tanks *giggles heeheeheeheee* It contains some acidity chemical substances, don't play play!
Finally, we’re ready for the Stripper process to remove the photoresist on our PCBs. We just throw our PCBs into the Stripper Tank and went for lunch. Oops, not that we didn’t care about it anymore, but this last process took time. So, be patient lah, go have a cup of coffee or something lah!
Went to get my PCB at the afternoon. Although it still has some “weaknesses”, nevertheless I’ll “sayang” it with all my heart, just like my own child (but hey I have no child okay :)))
How I “sayang” it? I drilled holes on it…to put components’ legs mah, hehe. Then I solder it under an extremely hot temperature. No abuse here.
At last, my Infrared MODEM was born! There’s too many sweet & sour in the producing of this MODEM, which I could only cried it to myself :((
Now…The time for Basic Law midterm came – 26 August 2005 (last Friday).
After the test, we’re in to the PCB evaluation today (Monday) afternoon, followed by the Intro to Power System midterm just now.
Luckily my PCB can work *whew* However, I was very disappointed with the test just now. None of the question which I’m 100% sure knows how to do.
But, now I have to look forward – tomorrow I got a morning lab session. Next, there’s a very stressful assignment to be submitted on coming Friday, while another due on coming Monday.
K lah, I’ve blurted out briefly the “4 seasons’ tastes” I’ve gone through all these while --- sweet, sour, spicy, salty…
It must have been an awfully “delicious” meal! Wana get some try?? ;;)
Saturday, August 20, 2005
I moved to lab(s)
Monday afternoon 2-5pm -- went to Project Lab 1 for Mini Project, as usual.
Tuesday morning 9-12noon -- DTL1 at Telecommunications Lab
Tuesday afternoon 2pm onwards -- heading to PCB lab to fabricate the PCB; waited there doing nothing until at about 4pm. Guess what?! The lab technician brought us great news -> COME TOMORROW
Wednesday morning 9am onwards -- sit patiently inside the PCB lab until 10:15am for our turn to start fabricating our PCB. Can’t complain!
Wednesday 2pm -- went to PCB lab again to get our ready-PCB. Didn’t get the chance to drill though.
Thursday 9am -- Again, crawled tiredly to PCB lab for PCB holes drilling. Waited until 10 something still didn’t get a touch on the drilling machine, what an irony!! Aggravated and left the lab.
Thursday 2-4:30pm -- EPM1 at Energy System Lab.
Friday 9-12noon -- went for Mini Project at Project Lab 1, as usual, again.
I’ve already moved my bed and my pillows to the lab.
Ohh, my home my dear lab(s) *puke blood*
Darn, this is a so freaking ill experience of spending my whole week in the labs.
Bitting nails…*labs phobia*
Guess this horrible thing close the curtain here? I can assure you it’s a no no no!
I can foresee that – my next week will be spent in the labs as well.
Curse’em…

Acquitted
We are freed from the “Prison of Haze” in Cyberjaya, thanks to the mercy of the WIND that blows it away.
The wind is definitely a fair “judge” that know we’re innocent and we don’t deserved all those haze. Thus, his Honour decided to do us justice.
Although the initial intention is to pray for the rain, but instead came the almighty wind! But who cares?! The objective is identical – chase away the “intruder from Indonesia” – HAZE!! *punch punch*
Wow, fresh air, fresh air…outside my windows *deep deep breaths greedily*
It feels so good! Never better in fact ;)
P/s:
An interesting site to view more photos of haze contributed by Malaysians www.hazeinmy.blogspot.com

Haze Updates
Click for Air Pollution Index nation wide by TheSTAR online
This virtually brings me back to many years ago, 1997, in Kuching. That time Kuching was experiencing the Air Pollution Index of 600 over, and the residents were nearly evacuated. I was in Form1 then, the school was closed for one week. I can remember vaguely that when I looked out from my house, it was like the clouds had landed on the earth, the surrounding was all white, hardly saw anything.
Oh ya, our University’s President issued this announcement this evening:
Leave for Cyberjaya Campus
Assalamualaikum/Good Day,
Dear VPs/Deans,
This is to inform that I am declaring the Cyberjaya Campus to be closed for two days (11th & 12th August 2005) because of the worsening haze condition. The API index is now 197, 3 points below the critical level. The unhealthy level is 100-200. Above 200 is critical. All staff and students are hereby given leave for the 2 days.
The Melaka Campus shall operate normally.
Kindly take note.
This news goes around the whole campus with a speed of light; forwarded messages in YM were unstoppable.
We’re discussing whether our Communication Networks’ midterm test on today 8-9pm was cancelled or not, until the coordinator of the subject posted a message:
By: XXX Date Posted: 10-08-2005
Midterm Exam : Midterm exam tonight is still ON!!!!!
I bet he was getting mad at those emails that flooded his mail box and non-stop calls that bombing his office at that instant :p Poor thing, he must be very busy answering questions then.
After the test, we came back and found out that all midterm exams which fall on these 2 days were postponed. It means -- our Introduction to Power System’s midterm on 11th August & Basic Law’s midterm on 12th August were procrastinated to latter dates.
Starting from tomorrow until Sunday, I’ll have 4 days holidays.
Hopefully the haze won’t get worsen any further, coz it’s really unbearable!
