31-12-2008

Today is the last day for 2008. Here comes some of the questions when the last day of the year:

1. What had we actually done in the year 2008 ?
2. Are we really success in 2008 ?
3. Are we manage to achieve all the targets that we set on 1-1-2008 ?

Let's think...

If we're not achieve all the targets that we set, that doesn't means we're fail. Maybe the times for us have not reach. Just give a one more try in year 2009 with the greater effort. Who knows the targets will be achieve.

For me, I could said some of my targets were achieved, some's not. I didn't blame myself of failed to achieve all the targets set, because I had tried my best with the greatest effort in every single things that I did. Maybe as I said, the times was still not on my side.

So, I would said GOODBYE to 2008, All of the happy and sad moments in the entire years will be so memorable. Thanks for everything.

AND....

2009, I welcomes U!

Peoples, Happy New Year 2009!

Improv 2

In acting course/class, we normally called the assignment as Improv, and the assignments for this class is just acting. I had taken this "Theater (Acting) course for my co-curriculum subject. Basically, the students will have 2 assignment for this courses, which are Improv 1 and Improv 2. Improv 1 is something like pair assignment which present it in the class and Improv 2 is a group assignment which perform it in the public. I would like to talk more on Improv 2 because it is more attractive compared to Improv 1.

Today, all of the temporary "actors" had to perform Improv 2 based on their location they had choosed. There were around 8-9 groups presented on various location such as Habeeb Sultan, U-Center, CLC Concourse, Ixora Foodcourt, Library and so on. My group was the first group to perform and we started our "acting" sharp on 11am in front of Highland Curry House (Emerald Park). The idea of the story that we created was like:

"A jealous guy tried to interfere in the situation of a couple's conflict, and at the same time, the jealous guy had feelings towards that girl. The jealous guy was tried to fight with the girl's boyfriend and tried to protect the girl from being bullied by her boyfriend, but ends up the girl slapped the jealous guy for making the situation worse. The girl was very angry and tried to run away from there, and her boyfriend chased her from behind. Unluckily, her boyfriend was bang by a car while he crossed the road. The guy was badly injured and was sent to hospital."

The beauty of Improv is when the reaction of the publics while we acting in the public. When the scene of conflict occured, the ladyboss of the shop was angry and scold us :" Hey, you all want to fight, go other places fight la. Why fight here?" She don't know we're actually acting! All of us just acted like nothing happened and we continued our story. Another great scene occured when the guy was bang by a car and there was bloods came out from his hands, mouth and on the road. Again, the ladyboss reacted, "Eh, why can this happened ? Fast sent him to the hospital!" Not only that, I can said many publics were shocked with that scene and 1 of the public went to the security department and report that was an accident. After we finished acted, the Emergency Response Team from MMU came with a van to give an emergency help. Once they reached here, all of us plus our lecturer told them there was only an acting. They looks like "diperbodohkan" us. What to do ? We're acting. We could not tell you the real story until we end our acting. So sorry la, PAK CIK! Kita ni kan semua bakal pelakon-pelakon. Hahaha!

Today also was the last class of the acting course. The purpose of today class is just to listen the comments and feedbacks from the lecturer about all his students performance, besides emphasize again the format for final exam. I felt enjoyed taking this course and I had learned some skills for the acting. That's great!

Merry Christmas

I supposed to stay at house and planned to finish up my assignment on the Christmas Eve's night, because I could not get the ticket to go back my hometown.

After the dinner last night, my housemate had invited me for Christmas Countdown Celebration at Portuguese Settlement, but I'm thinking of my assignment which need to be settle immediately with my group mate. Finally, I decided to go for countdown because my group mate said he can settled himself the assignment (left a bit part only). So paiseh la..

We reached there around 9.30pm and there were not much peoples because the time was still early. So, my housemate and I decided to have a walk around the area. I noticed that some of the houses were decorated so nicely. I planned to take some photos with the nice view of some houses, but unluckily, my handphone camera was not clear enough to capture night view. So, forget about it la! While walking around there, I met with few og my classmates.

Around 11pm, the crowds suddenly become more and more. Everybody was waiting for the countdown. Many peoples were started to play their snow spray at that time while waiting for the clock to reach 12am. Along the road, I being sprayed by peoples and many unknown peoples also get sprayed by me. My friends who attended there, aimed me and sprayed me while I'm in not alert condition. We chased and sprayed each other, so happy! I noticed that some girls became a target for a large group of guys while "spraying" activities held.

When there was 10 seconds left to reach 12am, most of the crowds gathered in front of stage and countdown for the Christmas. 10, 9, 8, 7, 6, 5, 4, 3, 2, 1, "MERRY CHRISTMAS!!!" I can see all the snow in the air. After the countdown, the crowds continued their "spraying" activites and I went back home around 12.40am.

It was an enjoyable night and I fully had fun till the max on the night!

MERRY CHRISTMAS TO ALL !!!

Happy "Dong Zi" Festival

Me and De Kai went to Muar today. We went there because our friend, Lian Jie (Huey Lian) had invited us to have some fun in Muar. So, we decided to follow her back her hometown. We started our journey around 12pm.

When I reached there, I get well-served by Huey Lian and family. Her mother cook "tang yuan" for all of us. Thanks, aunty. Although cannot eat mum self-made "tang yuan", but today can eat "tang yuan" can counted as grateful already. After having the "tang yuan", Huey Lian and 2 sisters accompany us visit Muar.

Our 1st place we go was "ASAM FISH SHOP". We having our lunch at there. I noticed that the "ASAM FISH" in Muar quite different from Melaka. In Melaka, the ASAM FISH will be accompany by tomatoes, lady-fingers and long bean, but there is a plain ASAM FISH in Muar. I mean, only fish inside. Anyway, the taste was still good and the dish I think the best is " THAI STYLE TAUFU".. It's so nice! ( Forget to capture photos, all busy eating only). After that, we went to have cendol. The cendol is nothing different from Melaka cendol and I prefer cendol with red bean.

Once finished eating cendol, we went to TANJUNG. There is the place whereby the visitors can feed the monkeys. There are so many monkeys there and they are free to move here and there.. There're so cute! So, 5 of us went down and me and De Kai decided to feed the monkeys while the 3 siblings not even dare to go closer to the monkey's spot. I bought 3 packets of groundnuts to feed the monkeys. I found out that at the first moment they afraid of us, but ends up they're so enjoyed of eating "free groundnuts". Before I ended my last packet of groundnuts, I planned to go closer to the monkey and feed them nearer. Who know's, the monkey taken all my packet of groundnuts and clawed my hand. I did not know what the monkey tried to do, but I just smile at them and I did not get any hurt. All of them laughed at me! I felt funny too.. Then, we went to beside Muar River and see the scene from there. We also walked around the garden and saw many peoples there selling and buying foods beside the road.

Final destination that we went was something like "4th road" if I'm not mistaken la.. Haha! At there, I can saw many food stalls beside this road and many peoples buying foods at that time. I also packed 1 wan tan mee + otak otak ( Muar's famous food) for my dinner. After finished buying, we headed home to Melaka around 5.20pm.

It was an enjoyable trip to Muar and I would like to thanks to Huey Lian and family for entertained me when the time I'm in Muar.

Some photos taken will be upload after Huey Lian pass to me.

P/S: HAPPY DONG ZHI TO ALL MALAYSIAN!

Fund Raising for MMU MASTER 2009

This morning, supposingly in the schedule were 4 peoples incharged for finding sponsor for our badminton club biggest event- MMU MASTER 2009, but ends up only 3 who turn up. Me, Alex and Rachael are the only 3 committees went out for finding sponsors, and we started our activity sharp at 10.30am.

The venue that we had to incharge is around Batu Berendam area. I found out Batu Berendam area was a very hard place to find sponsors, because today we just managed to collect an amount of RM35. YES, RM35! What to do.. We had tried hard shops by shops, explain to the worker/boss in the shop that we are organizing this event, and hope to get some support from boss and so on. The boss ends up ending the conversation by NO. THANKS!

Through my observation, I found out that some shops' managers have a very good "acting skills" while we went through their shop for fund raising. The examples of the conversation as below:

Me: Good morning, sir.. We're from MMU BADMINTON CLUB. This April we will be having a biggest badminton event, MMU MASTER 2009 at Yok Bin Secondary School. This event is open category. Due to the limited budget, we need to find some sponsor to support us make this event successfully. Do boss willing to support us ? (Short cut text)

"BOSS": Err.. Boss not in... The incharge person also not in.. I cannot make decision. Sorry! Thanks. (Padahal sendiri boss!)

After listened to those comments, 3 of us felt so swt and speechless. We're not forcing them to sponsor us, but please don't cheat us and treat us like we're 0 knowledge human. We're university student la! Common! Haha... But is fine.. We at least managed to get other 3 companies that under consideration. Actually not bad la, now the economic situation so bad, got peoples want to sponsor feel thankful already. We ended our activities around 4pm.

Birthday, Birthday, Birthday!!!

Update

I had finished all my midterms for now. For the rest of the days in this trimester just 3 assignments that have to complete before their due date and final exams that will be start on 6th January 2009.

I had spent many days for the revision of my last midterm paper, BIS2014 (Management Information System), so I had no time to update my blog, or I should say no time to enter my blog also.. Haha! It's not I'm too hardworking or what, just need more time for me to study those IT stuffs, but the result of spending so long time to revision just can know once the the marks release. I really weak in those IT knowledge.. :)

After settled all those tests, now is the time for all the students to arrange the timetable for their next trimester. All students are encourage to arrange their timetable well before the actual date for course registration to avoid complicated and clashing of the time and subjects when the day student register it. Seriously, I feel so disappointed with MMU system because all GAMMA BANKING & FINANCE students cannot arrange their own timetable due to clashing of the time. I asked the officer in the faculty, she told me to check again and finalize the timetable before 26th December 2008, and if the clashing is still there, kindly email to her.. Swt! I never face with this problem before since I study in MMU. This problem only occur to Banking & Finance student, others no problem.. Now all of us can do nothing and just wait for the timetable to change. Hopefully it will change la!

On 18th Dec 08, my friends and I went to Pantai Puteri to celebrate the birthday of Joanne (16th Dec) and Ching Ching (21st Dec). We celebrated late for Joanne birthday due to the BIS midterm exam on 17th, and advance celebration for Ching Ching due to so many friends not available on the 21st of Dec. Sorry to Joanne and Ching Ching! Hehe.. We chit chat and relax beside the beach once finished the celebration. The main reason we choose Pantai Puteri as our destination for the birthday celebration was also some claims want to have some peace place so that can relax their mind. Too stress of studying BIS 2014 I guess.. Haha! I will upload the photos once I get from my friend.

Happy Anniversary, Mum, Dad!

HAPPY 22nd ANNIVERSARY TO MY DADDY AND MUMMY!! (12-12-1986)

Your eldest son wish daddy and mummy always LOVE and stay ROMANTIC forever!

SWEET-SWEET...

Selamat Hari Raya AidilAdha

Gemuk Girl's

Yesterday went to KL PAC, Sentul with my theater class classmates to watch a stage show, which titled "Gemuk Girl's". Gemuk Girl team consists of 1 man and 2 woman. They're singaporean. We have to go and watch, then write a review for the play. It carrys mark for our coursework. So, all of us has no choice and it is also a good opportunity to watch a live play. I seldom get chance to watch live play.

We depart from Malacca around 5.40pm and reached there around 8.40pm. When we reached there, the show was already began, but not much affect us because one of the actor lying on the stage. We knew that he was lying for around 20 mins there. At first, I didnt know about the overall story, but after continue watch the play until certain period, finally I get it. They were actually criticize ISA. Their languages and pronounciation are very fluent and clear! Awesome!

What I feel suprise in this play was one people can carry more than 2 characters. It sounds fantastic but novice level like we all, hard to catch the message in the early stage. All of the actors spoke the dialogue using 3 languages, Chinese, Malay and English. After the play, the Director, Script Writer and 3 actors. They reveal their process of rehearsal and they need 9 months to practice the dialogue of the play. They also admit is a very hard tasks to practice Chinese.

After the play, all of us headed home and stop at the KFC in Plaza Tol Sg. Besi for our supper. Actually I should said it is our dinner because we haven't eat our dinner and the time we having KFC, the time was around 11.50pm. We reached Malacca 2.40am.

It was really a nice trip and I enjoyed it!

P/S: Happy Birthday to Chui Woon!

Failure and Success, which one better?

Everyone in this world hope they will become a success person one day. A person to become success, will it meet with "failure" in the journey to become success ?

Success sounds proud and happy if we achieved it. I believed 95% of peoples in this world will meet with "failure" before they really success. Success without failure, in other words, PERFECT does not bring any means to our success. It let us learn nothing. There are some peoples really enjoy PERFECT job.

On the other hand, failure really makes us learn a lot of new things. If we never meet with failure, we never want to learn new things. Failure will make us think what are the causes make us fail and how to solve this problem to become success later on. It brings many experiences to those who met with failure before. Although it's quite bad experiences, at least we alert of it and will not repeat the same mistakes again.

Please think of peoples like : Thomas Edison, Michael Schumacher... They really met with failure before!

Smile Moon

Hmm... Seriously I want to know the real story of this smile moon. I got this story from my housemates saying that last night was happening a smile moon.

According to him, this phenomena will happen once in many years, but I not sure how long will it repeat again. He added this phenomena happened due to Jupiter and Venus's position were in the line make the sun reflect the sunlight and create the smile moon. I'm not so sure what I said is true or not. Whoever knows please drop me a comment and let me know. Thanks.

Tonight the moon changed its mood to sad mood. Just imagine yourself by taking the moon in this picture and make it inversely.
