Letter of Good Conduct

We rent a car to Malaysia Embassy in Canberra today. We depart early 5am in the morning with three and half hours drive. It is a one day trip, not for traveling purposes, but for Malaysia police check for PR purposes. This trip doesn't have time for scenery at all. So, only a few pictures from Malaysia Embassy in Canberra.

O.o Here is it!

Ada apa pun tangkap picture lah...

I am obtaining a Letter of Good Conduct from Malaysia Embassy to prove that I have no criminal record in Malaysia. There is a Malay Hakim (The Judge) that ask me certain questions...

"Good Afternoon, Sir."

"Come in please and take a seat. Anything I can help you?"

"Errr... I don't know."

"Huh? Then why are you here?" *smiling*

"Oh... I am here for the Letter of Good Conduct."

"Okay... So how good are you?"

"Oh... I am very good. A good citizen for sure." (hahaha)

"How you are going to prove it to me?"

"Err.... How you want me to prove it to you?"

"Okay... so where are you from?"

"I'm from Penang."

"Who is your Ketua Menteri of Penang?"

"Err................................. Lee Kuan Yew!" *excited*

"Lee Kuan Yew is from Singapore lahhh...." (I always confused btw these 2 guys)

"Oh yea... Errr... Lim Kuan Ying!!!!"

"Yea lahh... So who is Lim Kuan Ying's father?"

"Errr... I know. He is a famous guy. But I cant remember his name." *scratching my head and laugh*

"Huh? Dunno ar? Lim Kiet Siang lahhh..."

"Yea yea... he is the one. I failed my Sejarah lah Sir."

"Haiya... Macam boleh macam ni? How to prove you are a good citizen? Okay now... Who is the PM?"

"NAJIB!!!!"

"You sure?"

"YES! I AM REALLY SURE!"

"Okay lahh... Everything done."

It is not a serious conversation after all. I think the Judge finds me so funny instead and I find the judge is so kind. It was not like what Mr. Goon told me about him anyway. I just feel so funny as I feel that having a test on my history of Malaysia which I throw it ages ago. lol After then, we go for Koko Black which we still can't find it in Sydney.

My Mocha...

A dozen of eggs?

NO! A dozen of chocolates!!! =D
Cutie bear chocolate for Christmas!

Paparazzi catch?

Picture of the day. =)


P/S: I'm so tired!

Port Stephen Trip

It was a last minute plan but a successful one I would say. Thanks Kai Yi, Kia Sheng and Ivan for organising the trip to gather everyone before we leave for summer holiday back to Malaysia. Everything was on schedule, everyone was enjoyed, every scene was beautiful, every moment was treasured, and everything was just great… It was fun!

There were 14 of us tagging along with three cars driving up to Port Stephen. We departed around 6.30 in the morning to keep ourselves on time. Everyone woke up around 5am. *tired* I guess some of them were really tired as they stayed up late to prepare breakfast for us. Thanks guys!

On our way to Port Stephen, we stopped by Avoca Beach for scenery, home-made-breakfast and beach ball – monkey? I don’t really know what they were playing as long as there was a ball in the beach with the people playing. Haha.

Then, we headed to Winery for grape farm. The grape farm was huge with lot of grapes growing. When we went to Hunter Valley, there ain’t any grapes at all due to the weather. But with the current spring season, grapes are growing! A few of them get some wine to bring it back home as souvenir.

As for lunch, we have fish and chips around… I forgot about the location. Haha. But it was so much better as compared to Fish Market to be franked. Photo shooting comes after lunch. The scenery was really really awesome.

I fly like a bird!

Birds attack!

Port Stephen

We reached Anna Bay after that and prepared for sand boarding. Yay~!! Again, another beach for us to fool around but everyone is getting headache. I guess we have too much sun exposure for the whole day. I nearly fainted. @.@ So, I wore on my jacket not for the cold weather but for the hottie sun. Argh~~

Human Evolution

Sand Boarding everyone!

It was pretty tired as it took your mass energy to climb up to the top like this….

But just slide down for only 30 seconds like this…

Weeeeeee~~~~~~~~~~~~~

Surprisingly the sand boarding region was not hot at all as compared to the beach region. It was windy. All of us have enough sands in our stomach for dinner. Haha. Apparently one hour of sand boarding manage to provide you for only five to six rounds because it was really tiring to climb up to the top. It just another version of playing snow board I would say.

After that, we drove back to Sydney for about three hours. I finally crossed Harbour Bridge since I came for Uni in Sydney. (Note: of course I did cross long time ago with family but not with friends). Oh yea, and finally chin soon get to go to King Cross lahhh… lol That’s the end for our one day trip! I’m gonna miss the time spent with you guys.

P/S: I was listening to the song above while blogging this post. =)

Day 2 of Summer Holiday

It is another tired day and yet a happy one. It is the first day of the week, which means blue Monday, and thus reflecting that it is time to work on my Permanent Residence (PR) application after finishing my final exams. My head starts to pain when think about it. I have so many things yet to be done.

I am so lucky to have guidance from friends for the application and a companion to work on it together. I am glad to have you guys! =DD (Note: proud with my credits Mr. Goon and Mr. Giam? LOL)

It is another day spending in city. Besides settling visa issues, we accompany Wann Huei to look for some souvenirs to bring home, partly for his mother-in-law-yet-to-be. Opps... Aunty, he will be a good son-in-law-in-the-future.

We headed to Lindts Cafe for... a chat? harbour viewing? a scope of ice-cream for 4 person? getting Sarah's birthday cake from EUGENE? We did a lot of funny stuffs there instead but it was fun. I think I talked and laughed too much today, starting to get soar throat. *Ahem*



P/S: What is the plan for tomorrow? "......"

假期咯...

昨天
交上了我的最后一张考卷

今天
我放假了

可是心里总是有些什么的
心里有着很多的问号

这将会是我大学的最后一张考试吗?
一切就从此画上了一个句号吗?...

我...
看不清前方的路
更不知道我一直在寻觅的... 是些什么?
看来是时候独立了



P/S: 想念那一片蓝蓝的天空...

R.I.P James Khor Wan Kai

This morning suppose to be another usual day for me. I wake up early in the morning and have my breakfast, go for Facebook just thinking of clicking around before I start my engine for my studies. However, the unusual incident happen I found from my friends' status. Everyone is commenting and stating about James Khor.

"What happen to him?" I wonder.

Without any clue, I quickly go for local online news to check out the truth. He, James Khor Wan Kai, passed away on last night as he was swept away at the waterfalls at Batu Berangkai picnic area in Kampar. No one can accept the fact that he actually left us at his young age.

I knew this young guy during my high school. Of course he was not in my high school, but we knew each other through Leo Club society, the international community services club. We serve our community and society and we lend our hand to those in need. I still remember when I was the president in PCGHS Leo Club, he used to be a young childish kid that fool around with me being the coming secretary of CLHS Leo Club. All these happened about4 years ago.

However, since I finished my high school studies, I lost contacts with most of the Leo members, including him of course. I know he continues his journey as a Leo member of Leo Club of Tanjung Putra to serve the community with his best.

Now and today, we lost him. We lost a friend, his parents lost a son, leo club lost a dedicated member and the society lost a contributor. Although I am not a very close friend of him, I somehow feel upset with his passed away. All my memories in Leo Club come back, and I start to miss all my members, Leos and Lions. How are all of you doing right now? How I wish I could attend his funeral tonight but too bad I am not around in Penang.

His leaving reminds me about the impermanence of life. Life is unpredictable. Things could just happen without our awareness. We must treasure every single moment we have, everything and everyone around us. He left us without leaving a word to anyone of us but I believe he would want all of us live our life to the best and continue to lend our hands out to everyone, regardless are you a member of Leo.

I pledge of my hands,
extended and open,
to help those in need.

I pledge of my heart,
reach of it,
and it will be touched.

I pledge of my ears,
to hear another's outcry,
my eyes,
to see the plight of the others,
my knowledge,
to bring a man closer to his dreams.

I pledge of myself,
for the betterment of my community and my country.


The Leo Pledge just come into my mind out of sudden. James, I am proud to say that I am a LEO and so do you I believe. Although you left us today, your smile, laughter, Leo spirit, contribution and achievement will we remember deeply in our heart forever. We will hold on to our Leo Pledge in our life. Once a Leo, forever a Leo. Roar~ Roar~ ROAR!!!

To our late James Khor Wan Kai,

May you rest in peace...


Forgive and Forget

Guess what? I just have a great dinner with my uncle. He is a good cook for Malaysian food seriously serving us Penang Asam Laksa, Char Koey Teow, Fried Hokkien Noodles, Poh Pneah etc. Owh... He satisfies our desire of hometown's hawker food. I am superb full right now. =D


I get start with my studies today efficiently I would say. I am satisfy with my progress. Besides, I have three companions today including my sister and her two friends. Although they are young kids to me, we get along very well in gossiping people. Haha. They get me out of the boredom of study and I learn something from those kids, mentally on thinking of thoughts but not academically.


Once an action being taken, there is no way turning back. Once an impression is capture, there is no way changing it in others mind. Once you are being hurt, the healed wound would still leave you a permanent scar. An action is easy to be spoken but it is hard to be taken. You can be forgiven but it would not be forgotten. We are, thus, learning to forgive and forget to make us live our life happier. =D



P/S: What a good lesson I learn from those kids huh? =)

I.AM.BACK

Finally, I am back. Not too long ago, I get to read a few of my friend's blog which they abandoned for a very long time as well. They are back too. =) They are the one who remind me about the purpose of blogging. Or maybe the motivation to blog I would say.

I read through my old posts and I find back my memories. Due to the busy uni life I am having and new life I am experiencing, I find myself started to forget about those old days and of course I miss those days too. Every single moment we shared, I wrote it down. Every single moment I treasured, I wrote it down. All those including all the happiness, laughter, sorrow or even my "sampat" moment I had in my life, I wrote it down.

When I see the list of posts I have for year 2009, how ashamed it is that it is less than 10 posts I have? And this is the 10th post I have for this year. Now I realise that efforts are needed to keep a blog "alive". This piece of platform not only I would share my life with my long-lost-old friends, but it is platform for me to find my memories back in the future. Can you believe that I can actually trace back when was the day I left Penang for Sydney? I can even trace the day I left Sydney to Penang for my summer holiday too. So who said that blogging is a waste of time? At least it is not for me.

So... be prepared that this post might be a lengthy one. =)

For the past one month, of course there are a lot of dramas happen in my life, too much dramas. You know my life is full with colours. Haha. I just recall that most of the time, I was busying with friend's birthday (A,B,C,..) . It is actually an opportunity we get everyone together and spend time together besides the busy uni life each and everyone of us having.

Besides, I guess Bodhi Nite 2009 was one of the huge events to be mentioned. I participated as one of the organising committees in the marketing department as the assistant of Xiang Yuan. With the outset intention of merely helping, I find that I actually fall in love in participating in this event. In addition, I participated in the Choir team and Sketch team to be one of the performers on the night itself too. I can't actually remember when was my last day standing on stage and PERFORM. We have heaps of meetings and practices which actually fulled up my timetable. To be franked, sometimes I felt stressed and annoyed.


"It comes, it stays, it goes... What is forever?" is the theme of Bodhi Nite 2009. When the day I stepped on the stage and performed until the end of the show, I felt everything comes to an end. Then, I started to miss Bodhi Nite at that moment. I wonder will everything just ended on that night? I felt empty when it comes to the end. I guess this is due to the efforts that I have put on in Bodhi Nite.

After Bodhi Nite, my life turned blank because my timetable has a lot of free slot in between. I don't know where to pass my time. Thus, I would say that I really enjoy organising the event. Thanks to everyone who I worked with and everyone who helped me up including those being my agents, helping up in postering, taking care of stores, buying tickets and attending the events. All of you made me shine on the stage on the night itself. Friendships are built through the event.


We have a short mid-sem break after the following week. And again, I joined the Unibud's friends for a short trip to Hunter Valley. It was a memorable trip to me as it was a out-of-city life experience we have. Besides, the joyful moments we have are the most treasured and our friendship bond actually build up stronger.

So... will friendship last forever? Or nothing really stays forever? Will it be merely a short one or a long one? I don't know. But at least I am trying my best to keep every friends I have, and I treasure everyone of them. I know who does care, I am glad and proud to have every single one of them supporting me all the way. I will treasure every single moment we have regardless how long will our friendship be.

Recently, I am doing a General Education course regarding Korea's history. I actually don't like history subject all the time. Apparently, I found this subject is a interesting one. I guess is the lecturer's sense of humour that stimulate my interest toward Korea's history. One lesson I learned is the power of "word". A king have everything they want including money, women and power. But, they have two things to fear: the mandate of heaven and the historian's brush.

A historian is responsible to study and write about history. Thus, a historian's brush is so powerful because he wrote down the history of the king and it will be studied by the next generation in the future. Then I become aware the power of a "word". It can be so powerful to mislead anyone and influence people's perspectives toward any issues. Thus, when you are delivering a message, make it clear to be understand and don't carry any misleading.


I will strengthen my languages so that I wouldn't mislead anyone. Haha. And of course I need to brush up my English to post up more new updates in my blog. For my coming event would be my final exam. This is my final semester already and final exams are in 2 weeks time. Will this be my last exam in my life? Will this be my last lecture or tutorial to attend in my uni life? Next week is the final week I have in uni. All lectures and tutorials are going to be attended and I will treasure my last week in uni.

Guess I have update enough for this post. It's really a lengthy one. I'll try my best to keep it "alive".

So

I WILL BE BACK! XD



P/S: Wish me luck for my finals.

A....... "Dramatic" Day?

Today suppose to be another sunny bright day I have. However, reality doesn't always follow the path of our dream. When I was having my sweet sweet dream on my lovely bed with my lovely bolster from Penang.... (Okay... I should stop crapping), my apartment's alarm rang and instructed us to evacuate now and immediately! =.=||



When I opened my eyes, my room was still so dark as in the night. I was having in my mind that should I just ignore the alarm system and continue my sleep? I was so reluctant to wake up at that moment seriously. Until my sister came in my room and forced me to wake up. =.=||

When I checked on the time, it was only 6am in the morning. I WAS SO SLEEPY MAN. Okay... I have no choice. I woke up and grabbed my jacket, tied my messy hair up and most importantly grabbed my house keys and WALK (note: I didn't run) down the apartment using the staircase. =.=|| Oh yea... and I was in my pajamas at that time too. Owh~~ My image habis liao. =.=||

We waited for 10 minutes. Then we finally get back to sleep. By the time I stepped into the my main entrance, sunrise already. =.=||||||| But I still continue to sleep. Haihz... disturb my sweet dreams. I don't know who the hell cook so early in the morning and activated the alarm. Luckily I have my class in the afternoon today.

In my macroeconomics lecture today, they change a new lecturer for us because our previous Korean Lecturer went oversea. This is a Russian guy with a very strong Russian accent. When he first started the class, I felt something going to be so wrong in today's lecture. His accent and the way he lectures are so wrong. I started to use Patrick's phone to FB. LOL. My first time FB-ing during in the lecture.Half way through the lecture, people starts leaving. It's not only 2/3 person but a lot are leaving. Can you imagine how hopeless is it? We decided to leave as well because we were so lost in the lecture. We really don't know what he was talking about. He's explaning those that is so not important and he's just reading from the lecture slides. I can study myself in that case. We better rely on our textbook. LOL

Finally, I made my way back home. While I was crossing the road, AGAIN I almost get bang by a car. It's my mistake this time. I was so rushing to cross the road without using traffic light. I didn't even look to left and right. I just saw a person in front of me was crossing so I assume that there would be no car and I just run across. Suddenly, I realised there is a car coming toward me in a high speed. Luckily the driver noticed me and slow down and of course I get honk-ed. At that moment I was really shocked. I just feel so lucky because I was not knocked down by the car. That car was really in high speed.

Suddenly, a lot of things came across my mind. Memories... Suddenly I recalled every time I used to be so blurred and my friends used to stop me from crossing the road when the light hasn't turn green. I feel so lucky to have all of you to be with me. I promise to myself I wouldn't J-cross again.

There are just too many incident happen today. I need to keep myself healthy and safe. I promise...


P/S: Dear friends... Please take good care of yourselves too. =)
