The day when I didn't know happy from sad.

It was a pretty weird day today I would say. On the 3rd of May 2011, results of semester three of the foundation course were released. It was the time awaited by many HELP students, and it was filled with tension and anxiousness (not o mention student vulgarity too).

The morning began with awesome rainy weather, perfect for going back to bed because I was so not in the mood of knowing results. And then there was the traffic jam which didn’t make things feel any better. Once I reached college, I met up with Gma, Mom, Dad, Uncle, and I went straight to the lab to await results release. The tension I felt was…..was…..so great that I ……..yawned??? Yeah I know it’s weird but I yawn a lot when I’m nervous and when I have butterflies in my tummy. I’m weird that way I guess…..

At exactly 9:08 on my phone, results were released, and I was jumping for joy for myself. Those around me in the lab too were with me because we all passed. Even though some didn’t pass all, they were at least glad they didn’t fail more than one. So, with that I walked out of the lab feeling great for myself…..didn’t think I was being quite selfish though, nothing occured to me about my friends till I saw them as I walked towards upper foyer. Gma was the first I noticed in tears, and I knew something didn’t quite turn out well. Mama was next, although she wasn’t in tears just yet, she started crying when I asked if she was okay. The joy I felt for having being done and over with Foundation just dispersed to God knows where. Yes, I felt happy no longer. I was stupid for me going around asking Gma, “are you okay?”, when obviously she wasn’t. I guess I did so because I didn’t really know what exactly I could say to make her feel better. I felt sad too. As for mama, I guess I tried cheering her up by being there for her. I hope I eased things off a bit. :s SIGH!!

Honestly, I didn’t know what to feel.  I felt like.....in between Night and Day...
Between happy and sad.......




To begin with, it’s not like I got HD’s to be bouncing for joy anyway. Guess I couldn’t help but feel sad for my friends who didn’t quite make it through. I hope they will get through with this last semester, and I do with all my heart wish them all the best. You have my back :) HELP-ings. We’re Family! :) Since I am quite free till September when I resume with degree, I’m willing to give a hand to anyone with assignments.


Well, that would wrap up the highlights of today I suppose. Nothing much to laugh or be happy bout, but definitely something to remember, to keep in mind.

Updating while me boring.... D:

You know how I complained bout having no traffic in the previous post?? Well, yeah…. I think I spoke too soon. In fact once I posted that post I had 10 more people visited my blog and one of them were from Australia. I was like….”WHOA! I think I spoke to fast.” :x Well, now I think I have quite a number of visitors from all over….the…Malaysia. ;)

Yeap! You bet! That is a big difference from the one in the previous post. ;D But that doesn’t mean my blog is interesting that people came to read it. They probably just stumbled on my blog. :( SSaaaaaad!



To be honest, I don’t think it just applies to me, but I think all family members at the moment are bored lifeless to the depths of our souls!!! Holy shit?? Yes….Holy shit indeed. Now, I don’t intend to sound like some Gospel pastor trying to preach about how bored we are but if it does sound so…..then….. I don’t give a damn! xD

The souls of my brethren are now crying out to the heavens with the many different desires to satisfy what we lack in our once awaited holidays, now already-in-the-midst holidays! Some cry the cry of.. “ I WANNA GO OUT!!!!” …. “I WANT A CAR!!!”… “ SEND ME SOMETHING TO DO!!!”…. “GET ME THE HELL OUT OF HOME!!!”. Indeed my friends, certainly and most truly, we live the life of Boredom with a capital B. SIIIIGGGGHHH!!! Of course we don’t expect a car to fall from heaven, or even heavenly transportation out of the house, but come on!! We do at least get something,…right??? D:

Oh well, yeah I was just gonna update you about how bored most of us without a car are. Pray for us…and I shall end with an..Amen. So….Amen.

My Blog is bored.....because it is boring. :O

You know, when you come and take a view of my "colorful" blog, it is nice to the eyes. Well...I'm not sure about what you think but it looks cute to me. The outlook and colors...although some of the colored txt don't fit the background. :x (My bad...gonna try changing that). When it comes to the content though, i don't think everyone would enjoy reading it since much of it really depends on inside jokes only the "family" members would know about. 



MY BLOG HAS NO TRAFFIC! at all....seriously.  Have a look...
Like I said, no traffic at all. :(((  Well READERS! (if you are out there...somewhere...mayb..:() I'm reaching out to all yall! Please let me know how i can improve on my blog, or else i'll just continue writing it strictly on family based purposes. Thank you!!!

Yeah I actually do have another post to write about the new Family pet? Remember? lol! I haven't thought of anything yet though. Gimme sometime. ;)

Foundation (March 2010) Recap

I did mention in my previous post that the end of semester 3 has come to an end. The existence of semester 4 for me, personally I hope will never come, but that doesn’t mean I won’t miss my “family” and friends. :( Yes….one year of worries, stress, fun, happiness, all those experiences of 1st year in college, you name it, has just ended. Although there were heaps of crap along the way that I definitely stepped on, I think I would say 2010 to early 2011 is one of the best years of my life so far. Hopefully the best years won’t end here, because college life ain’t over. ;D


So right….in this post I’m practically gonna show you a recap from the beginning of 1st sem to the end of 3rd sem. Yeap! A whole heap of pictures here for you to see, just for fun you know. In between these pictures, so many changes has taken place. Aaaahh its really indescribable how everything just moves on with time. Have some fun taking a look at these pics.  :)




SEMESTER ONE!
 
Yeap! That’s me in 1st sem..and with the very first guy friends of mine. Funneh huh.

And this is the very first group that constantly teased me. If you noticed, Sis Nat was one of the earliest of the earliest friends that I knew.




See this photo? Yeah, me am not in this photo. Ya know why?? Because I skipped classes for my driving exam, and THANK GOD I PASSED!! The downside of that day though was the fact that I missed a fun orientation class with the young and pretty Ms. Selena Ong. :( And on top of that, these guys put those cartoon faces to represent me since I was missing. =.=



During semester one, I made friends with my Korean Buddy for the first time. We had awesome times, really fun. Even with Aaron (fat 1 in the photo), we had some memorable times.
 Aaah yes…Thriller Night. One of the best orientation nights organized by Social Sphere for the April intake students. I had attracted a lot of attention with my self-designed mask. LOL! It was really one memorable night. :D
Oh oh oh! Not to forget the Mini-Rush! a similar event to America’s Amazing Race only thing this takes place for students only and around KL centre. I can’t say I’m happy since we didn’t get 1st placing, but HELL I’m glad we we’re 2nd. xD

 2nd PLACE CHAMPIONS! Seriously we didn’t expect to even get to win 2nd place.

Who remembers Michael Chua?? Really you don’t?? he’s my retarded bro man. Haha 1st sem was memorable partly because of him. I miss you bro, if u ever get to read this. Come back soon. :) This was his farewell party…:) good times.






And not to forget, one of the best classes in sem one was English: Ms. Chandra’s English class. It was really and awesome class although she was strict. She allowed some fun, and that counts. Awesome teacher (for me) = awesome class.


SEMESTER TWO
 Well from what I have collected, semester two was the beginning of our LAN subjects. So I picked moral studies….holy shit! No joking subject because HELL IT WAS BORING! But that was the 1st time I met Bro Cubby and Gma Christy. :) In this photo we were on a visit to an orphan home for our moral project.




HOLY MOLY HOLY COW! Yeap…in case you’re wondering…that is indeed me. I look fugly right? Tell me about it. It was a voluntary project that made me regret ever volunteering for it. =.= It was a great experience though. I had to play a blind man on the streets for a week to make a 20 minute video of the troubles of the blind. There you go, another memorable project. X) Just wondering…do I look old here? Coz I’m suppose to. ><

Happy birthday to MEOW MEOW pussy……cat. You know the one sitting like an Ah Ma that one? Yeap, she’s Katherine. I have yet to introduce you to her since she is now part of the family as…the family….urm….pet? (ewww not that I wanted it ;P), but I’ll keep that for later. She’s turned 18 then…small puss….i mean kitty cat. :P


I don’t exactly recall when and why we’re doing that but…hey! it’s a memory. xD I think its after midterms of 2nd sem. Boy was it our most stressful semester! :O




Aaaahhh I remember this one! We were having class party for our HUMAN COMMUNICATION subject which….was a painful subject I must say. We had the awesomest pizza ever! YELLOW CAB!! Hope you don't mind me putting a BIG BIG PHOTO of just the pizza. PIZZZAAAAAA!!!





 Now I don’t know if you believe me, but 3 boxes of pizza was kaput within 15 minutes. It.was.GOOOOOOOD!!!




 Oh! And you know how Ms Chandra’s English class was the best class in semester one? Well…Ms Renee’s MARKETING class was the awesomest class in semester TWO! Although we really disliked Ms. Renee at first, she turned out to be a really cool person. :)

Oh oh oh! Since our semester two was ending towards the end of 2010, we had our HMC Ball and it was….THE BOMB! well mayb it’s the fact that it was my first ever prom, and there were really cool performances by some of the college students and my friends. It was all good although I missed the after party. :P



I guess that would wrap up Semester 2. <3


SEMESTER THREE

Semester three didn’t begin with anything new really. We were all being retards again since we missed each other so much. LOL! No really, the holidays were kinda long and yea…we miss college peeps. Uncle Justin here started out the sem with….highlighting rockets on everyone’s arms and yea stuff like that. And later we started playing this game call…1 COW EAT GRASS MOO  In which whoever loses a round gets HIGHLIGHTED! Great fun! X)
Unfortunately my arm isn’t in this photo…coz my rocket was on my bicep.LOL!

Oh yeah! I almost forgot, semester three was when I 1st made a cover song with a music video. Here’s a cover on Kina Grannis’ – Valentine. Enjoy watching it. :D

Well, following this cover i guess lotsa people wanted me to join in the Talent Night which was organized by the Public Relations Students, and although GGPA and I didn't quite make it the finals, we got pulled in again by one of the contestants, Mae Elliessa. I was honored to be asked to do a duet with her because she is one good singer. :)


Talent Night was a successful event, and just so you know we ABSOLUTELY….didn’t make it to the top three placings. But that wasn’t the reason we performed either. We did it to have some experience and we did it for all our friends who supported us that night. Will be glad to continue doing it for you guys coz we LOVE <3 YA! :) Besides we made heaps of new friends too. It truly was an awesome night.



And then, we had our psychology presentations which were…..pretty much screwed up. :S We didn’t really practiced, but then again…who practices their GROUP presentations? Well for the record, I don’t. ;P But it wasn’t me who screwed up though. I won’t tell you who did. =P But it was great fun going through the stress in preparing everything (I mean…I’d like to think it was great fun :O).Since it was kind of a long wait for our turn to present, some of us just cam whored. ;)





And I’ve come to the end of 3rd sem. I know that was pretty quick but hey….I can’t really remember every single detail. Plus, I don’t have more pictures. LOL! Ggpa and I did another cover, and this time it was a mash up of Grenade and Rocketeer. We had much more fun doing this cover because it involved more people, and also new found friends. :)    
And of course in the mean time we took photos….as usual, only this time it was mommy’s decision, mommy’s phone. xP

Well…As you know how every semester there were memorable classes?? Well this time…its Psychology! It was the BEST class although the subject on its own is pretty tough. :D


Last but not least…don’t think this class was memorable, but rather….IT WAS THE WORST! But I guess u can still say it was memorable since it was the WORST! Just hope I made it through the finals. Oh I’m praying my butts off for finals. :O

There is another awesome class which I missed on…BUSINESS! But since I got no pictures…..i guess I gotta let that one skip. :s

It has FINALLY come to the end of this post. Yeap, this is all that was for my foundation year. It was really a great year, and I hope I will have these memories remembered till the day i..die. Yes…Till the day I die. Because I love the friends I made, and the experiences they gave me. I do appreciate everything, and I will continue to do so. Hope u enjoyed reading and looking at this post. :) Until next time…

Another....SORRY FOR NOT UPDATING ANY SOONER AND KEEPING YOU FOR THE WAITING AND FOR LETTING YOU DOWN OR DISAPPOINTING YOU FOR NOT BEING THERE WHEN YOU WANNA READ SOMETHING NEW IN MY BLOG.

Yo yo yo!! I’m really sorry for such a late update. Really am….will you forgive me? *puppy eyes* 
 


It’s not a good enough reason to stop reading riiiight??? :D

Anyway, I’m here with the sole purpose of updating you guys with the stuff you missed out on over the past month. It has only been a month so stop your whining. ;D

The reasons why I haven’t been on time with the current stuff happening is because…:
1) Assignments were just overwhelming. URGH!!

2) Presentations were being prepared. Another..URGH!!!

3) By the time I’m done with those just felt like gaming xD (what an ass excuse right? I know I know.)

4) I only had like..a week or two for enjoying before the nightmare began. Yes people…I’m talking about EXAMS! FINAL EXAMS mind you.



So are those reasons good enough to satisfy your “Why isn’t this jack*** updating this jacked** BLOG??!!” Well I hope so coz…really I don’t wanna lose my readers although most of them are the family members and no one else outside really. :O *puppy eyes*



So….first things first. The very first memorable event while I was away was APRIL THE 1st where we celebrated the birthday of our dear beloved Grandma, CHRISTY.

Awwww look at her…so cute right?? Now you know where I got my “cute” genes from. >:D

The best thing about the celebration was the fact that the day wasAPRIL FOOL’S and everyone were being really retarded that day. But I guess in this family, everyone is retarded. ;D The memorable parts began when everyone were getting ready to surprise grandma at Sushi King in Jaya1. Sister Bubbles, Daddy Ashwin, Uncle Justin, and Brother Cubby were in this plan to just make Gma cry outta happiness. We had a few non-family members as well and a “going-to-be-new-family-member”. Denzie Cheah, Stephy Foong, Joyee Khoo, and Katherine MEOW MEOW (ahem…I meant Yeong. Katherine Yeong^^). Half of the surprise party waited for Gma at Shushee King, while the other half were keeping Gma busy busy and occupied. Thanks to Uncle Justin and Dad everything went fine despite Uncle’s almost-screw-up by mentioning “surprise party” when Gma was around. :O Lucky for us he didn’t wreck anything, and lucky for him he didn’t wreck the plans. >:D I was one of those in the waiting party, and boy did she take freaking hours to come! Sheeesh I swear I could’ve died of starvation! But the wait was worth it. :) Once Gma came in she had a shock of her 19th birthday, she stoned for a good couple of minutes before almost crying. (There there now don’t you cry too!) Yeah…we made Gma happy that day. And we’re glas that we did. =D






 See this shit?? THEY MADE ME EAT IT. D: and BOY did it hurt. Like really bad…but I survived. HAHA! 












Yeap….that’s me when I ate that green shit. MAN!!



I just had to put this in. We look alike!!....right?? ><

And finally…the finishing photo of the celebration. We had heaps of fun.





Besides celebrating Gma's bday, we were by then towards the end of 3rd semester which is the last semester for some of us. Since these some which includes me were leaving, we were kinda feeling the..."missing-our-friends-already" feeling. Some of the college peeps are transferring to different colleges while some are gonna have a 4th sem in foundation and others moving on to degree either in business or psychology. Great gramps, Klex, won't be in HELP uni any more since he's pursuing an IT career and would be transferring to INTI college. I tried persuading him not to go, but i can't stop him from living his dream. Besides, I dont't even intend to stop him. :) Its just that once we've all built that bond in friendship (Family) we will definitely miss each other once we're not around. That applies to all of us, the HELP-ings family, I hope. :D 


We've already started to worry about each other looong before finals were even close. We would often say, "Hey guys, its almost the end of the semester. Sigh...Its already been one year in foundation and it feels like it was just yesterday since our orientations." Then we would begin reminiscing the past, on our first impressions of one another. :) We'd then laugh our worries away only for them to return after a day or so. :( Yes...the HELP-ings may not be having those awesome times as much as we did before. Sad to say...it does look like the end of the road for us. HOPEFULLY AND I PRAY TO GOD IT'S not. I may be wrong, but heck it feels like I'm losing something really special.:'(
GGPA took about 100 photos of himself and many other individuals as all of which are his friends and teachers, and of course...family members. Here are some...check em out. :D 
    









As you can see I only picked the ones with family members because this is STRICTLY FAMILY!<3 



Don’t mind my stupid face…if you notice carefully I was on the verge of laughter. X))



It has definitely come to an end already. Final exams are over…there were tears and joys from the very beginning, hope there will be more to come for the better. These fun times we had…unimaginably amazing and unforgettable, will always be cherished by me. Hopefully all family members will too because, I love you guys. I wouldn’t have made it through the foundation without you. You guys are awesome…and even if we may be apart because of different courses and colleges, we will still be together at heart. <3

I’m not sure if you’ve notice something different, but…YES, WE HAVE FINALLY GOT A FAMILY PHOTO! WOOOHOOO!!! And looks like we have a new member to the family, Katherine Yeong MEOW MEOW. I’ll write and introduce her in the following post/posts. Stick around in case this ain’t the end. I love my family. <3<3<3<3
