Today went to buy Fong Wen her birthday present. Haha, it was rather last minute. The problem is...nobody knows what to buy for her...so in the end we bought her A LOT AND LOT AND LOTS OF TURTLE/TORTOISE related items. Abel got her a pair of turtles. Me, Zyian, Sue Lynn, Charly went to get her a HUMONGOUS birthday card. Hahaha. Well, its my first time seeing it too. I think everyone love the card more tonight. Hahaha. Anyway, again, Happy Birthday Fong Wen! =)

Gok Hau loves our tortoise! =D

And her boyfriend...same...loveeeee...


Happy ending for her =D

Relieved!!!!

Very busy for the past 2 weeks. All I know bout last three weeks...is only 2 things, assignments and deadlines...horrible. Very horrible. Assignments come non-stop. First come the Pro-E drawing on the program itself. Thought I finished...but then...found out I didn't complete yet only hours before the hand up. OMG...Then there's the lab report...which is supposed to be handed up only one day after the drawing. Disrupting my work is the welding and cutting day...which took the whole day. Sien...eventhough that day was kinda fun.



The next week...car jack poster, drew it single-handedly. Hahaha. Lucky there's my groupmate to help me find out bout the info...but aiya...surprisingly, it took me long enough to finish the bloody drawing. Then there's the thermodynamics which is actually handed to us long time ago, just didn't do. haha. Haih...also got the stupidest C language, which was thought by the lecturer which I don't really like. Sien ler...finally its over. Maths test was surprisingly easy. =)
Cutting and Welding!! =D
15:43 | Author: DrTofu


Last Sunday, I had a chance at doing welding and cutting of metals. =D This is one of the extraordinary experience for me. Maybe not so for some.


Group Pic
Crazy Friends...haha

Gathered at uni at some 10 minutes before the said time, which is 7am. Bugger...turned out the bus only arrives at 7.40am...wasted my sleeping time -.-

Spent that 40 minutes chasing and disturbing the peaceful morning of the Nottingham ducks. hahaha.
Then got onto the bus and I slept almost throughout the whole journey (damn tired la oi). It was when the bus stopped, and my friends all got up to get down, only I woke. Damn! Hahaha.

Then after a short briefing from the trainers there, we had a light breakfast at the cafeteria there before starting.


I was in the welding group for the first session.
Welding!
Seen through the mask

Ok...seriously...I don't think I fancy welding thaaaat much. First of all, the electrode which is used for welding sticks so much to the plate we're suppose to be welding on..after a while...the fun was all lost.

Meanwhile, the cutting seems much more fun ( And it is!!! =D) First you turn on the gas without oxygen, light a spark over it and wah laaa!!! FIRE!!! HAHA. I enjoyed it very much. There's no difficulty in it...except..gotta becareful...because its hoT hoTT and its HOT!!!! hahaha. But nevermind!!! Heat can't stop me..haha. I managed to cut my own name in time before we go back. Hahaha. A fun day!!! =D

See?? So much fun!!! =D

Allan's Birthday and the weekend
15:44 | Author: DrTofu
Phew...finally the badminton tournament is over.




Spent the weekend over at Semenyih. Haha. First time oh. Luckily, I have my friends together to teman me over here. They are Charly, Gok Hau, Sue Lynn, Reggie. Thanks guys. You guys made my weekend =)




Also I went to Allan's ( a new friend from Civil Engineering) birthday party over at his rented house, which happens to be juz a minute's walk away from my place. =) The party was great! There were of course many civil engineering students there. Me and charly were like intruders. Hahaha. Sorry Allan didn't buy you any present, just sponsor satay. Hahahaha.


The Allan. Funny guy. =D




Street soccer...joga bonito!



After the party, a few of his friends asked me to join them on Street Soccer!!! Yes, we did play football on the street, with my sandals vs their shoes...omg...lucky nothing bad happened there. Must be Allan's super aura that day haha.

But I didn't stay long, just a while...because I was quite tired, so I left at 12am.




The Polar Bear and his middle finger =D

Next day, went to Midvalley with those Gok Hau, Charly, Sue Lynn and Reggie. Went to watch 007. Hohoho. It wasn't super nice, but it didn't suck all the way too. Then had some Carl's Junior ( I had some double western blabla burger, super!!!) Burgers before heading home. It's been so long since I last tasted their burgers. Now talking bout it, feel hungry for it again. NOooooo!!!

Then went shopping a while. Sue Lynn bought a book, named Brisinger. That's the book for the Eragon that movie's fantasy stories. I think I will buy. Its quite interesting, and I haven't read any interesting book for a long long time already =)
Sieeeenn...

Haih...so long no blog...no interesting event oso lately. Maybe except being so busy with the Badminton Club's Tournament. Haha. Now I know being the umpire is quite hard. Need to focus so damn hard. If not will make mistakes, and called "Noob" by the players =(

I find juggling time for studies and being part of the event is hard. This week planned to study some Thermodynamics, Solid Mechanics and Materials (haven't touch one bloody bit...I'm gonna be dead, Dr Ng, Dr Cheah, Dr Lim, please don't kill me...), I found myself almost without time at all with the event ongoing.

Now's the time =D Today back early. But seeing so long I never blog, so just type somethings here la...to update a bit. Muahaha. Also because I don't want to start studying so early. Cuckoooooooooooooooooooo!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! ARGH!!!!!!!
What would you do?

What is the 3 things you would do if you can travel through time to the past and you are allowed to change 3 things in your life???

Oh I, had a lot to say.

I miss you and things weren't the same.

You might think, I don't look, but deep inside the corner of my mind, I'm attached to you

Some people wait a life time, for a moment, like this.

Want you to know, you make me happy...

But when you walk away, I count the steps that you take
When you're gone, the pieces of my heart are missing you,
When you're gone, the face I came to know is missing too.

Keep holding on, coz you know we'll make it through,
Just stay strong, coz you know I'm here for you.

If you can't reach out to me, sing a song across the sea,
and I'll pick it up, with an ocean sized love.

Coz you'll be in my heart, yes,
you'll be in my heart, always.

Wherever you go, whatever you do,
I will be right here waiting for you.

And I...will always love you...
Siao Long Bao!!! =D
20:40 | Author: DrTofu
Pitiful Vy, finally the long waited siao long bao (SLB from here on) eating trip to Din Tai Fung in Gardens Midvalley had materiallised today with Yiew Wen, Tsi Ngar and Pei Ann...few weeks after he left. Hahaha. Sorry man. I'll make sure we go with you when you come back the next time.


Being pestered constantly by Yiew Wen and Tsi Ngar for the SLB is seriously annoying. Hahaha, in the joking way of course! I was hungry for the tasty little pao also!!! Its been so long since I last sink my teeth onto one of them and feel the amazing taste of the soup from inside the pao swim around my tongue. YUMMY!!!!



Xiao Long Bao!!!

Fried Rice

Once there, at once, usual...I get ourselves 12 pieces of the SLB, which means there are 3 SLB for every one of us. =) Then I ordered my usual Shrimp Wanton La Mian/handmade noodles. The rest of them ordered chicken chop fried rice. The fried chicken chop is so good, I forgot who is Colonel Sanders. =D

As I expected, the food got pretty high ranking from them. =) We sat so long chatting, I think the tea that cost 2MYR was really worth it! Hahahaaha.

After paying the bill, we went off for some shopping in Midvalley. Yiew Wen and Tsi Ngar wanted to buy something for Vivian's birthday. They shop really long...lucky still in time for me to eat my BASKIN ROBBINS!!!! Hahahaha. Yummy again! So long never eat BR already. Still taste good. This month got 30th and 31st...good, gonna go get 2 tubs of ice-cream! Natural NZ + BR!!! Wooo hoo!!! Ice cream month.



Pei Ann and her BRs

Tsi Ngar's BR


Happy!


MY BR!

After that, its late already, cause its near dinner time, so gotta rush back. Fun day anyway. Nice to eat SLB again. Long time no eat. Next time should try Dragon-i's for comparison reason. Next round. =)
Langkawi!! =)
00:57 | Author: DrTofu
Langkawi!!! Finally I arrive here again after dunno how many years (I've been here when I'm still categorized as a KID). I didn't know Langkawi was this huge, compared to other islands in Malaysia. Its possible to visit the whole Penang Island in 1 day, but I think, Langkawi is not possible. Langkawi is much more nicer compared to Penang, partly because it has mountains in the middle of the island, this makes it more...photogenic??? Hahaha.





See what I mean?

Anyway, when we first arrived, after getting our rental car, we ate some simple lunch, and headed off to one of the most famous trademark of Langkawi, the Mahsuri Tomb/Makam Mahsuri.

Mahsuri is legendary girl with a beautiful face. It is said that she is so pretty her face brings jealousy to her sister-in-law, which ultimately accuse her of adultery and cause her unjust death. Before she died, she cursed Langkawi to damnation for 7 generations.



The Mahsuri Tomb


Next, we headed to our hotel, Langkasuka Beach Resort to check in and rest up.



Tick Siang happy to be there. So are we.



The View from my room =)


The rooms are actually not bad! It is huge and cheap! On the downside, beach is a bit not that beautiful, and room cleanliness is a bit off my expectations. Still, why complain? It is cheap. Hahaha.

We rested for quite a bit till near dinner time. Then some of us who are still awake went out to check out their beach. It was very windy. It feels so good when the wind hit your face. Basically its kinda close to asking someone to slap you. Hahaha. Not that bad la, just kidding, but it was quite heavy.



Windy!!!







Darren's Kungfu Kick!






William's Super Attack!!







And we can't resist...to pose a bit there...hahahaha.


REALLY EMO


Fake emo...can see him smiling.



WINNER!!! TOP EMO FELLA OF THE TRIP! SO SAD!


After that, we went to pick up my old friend!! Aaron who was studying there. And so coincidentally...his school is just a minute away from my hotel. What a coincidence. So with his recommendation, we went to Pantai Cenang, which is about 15 minutes drive from our place to check out a Tang Lung Seafood Restaurant.










Yup, that's Aaron. Hahaha. Sadly, I forgot to take pictures of the food simply because, we're all very very very very VERY VERY HUNGRY!!!! All I remember was, the food is SOOOO GOOOD!!!! I wanna go back there to eat again!!!!!! It was bit pricey, because, we ordered mostly medium servings. Still, I think its worth it. Excellent environment and food quality =)


Next...the most horrible event, drinking time =S Everyone is ready...even Gok Hau is eager...yeah. So, with mugs and glasses out, we started drinking. Started easy with the sparkling wine. Seriously, I wasn't very impressed by that, I find it bit too sweet to my liking. Then its my favourite's, the Sheridan Irish Coffee!!! Everybody likes it very much! =D Then come the Godly Bacardi and Absolut Vodka...all hell broke lose..and...everyone is drunk by 12am. I went to sleep early due to dizziness caused by alcohol, next door, because...someone over there vomited...horrible smell to sleep with. =(


Next day...all down...except for me and Charly because we are the two that slept that night. Hahaha. But the ones that are really down with heavy hangover were Darren and Gok Hau. They recovered only by evening, before dinner.


The 4 culprit that knocked out our friends haha



Someone was so pissed drunk he don't even know who he's calling anymore. =s



Side Effect of Drinking : obtaining habit of hugging plastic bag everywhere you go


Hangover and cloudy day can't prevent me from exploring the island still!!!! So, with Charly and Ziyian, we ventured forth to a place, the Seven Wells and Waterfall. I'm so glad we went there. It was beautiful!!!



Cloudy...can't see top of that mountain


On the way to there, we saw:





Nice??? Hahaha.


When we reach there...gosh...what I saw...almost make me faint on the spot. We NEED to CLIMB to get there.



It's steep alright

Still, I have no regrets of climbing this hill. I love this kind of adventure. In fact, I love adventures, but the world gotta have some creepy crawlies...shit. If not, I'd love adventuring. =(

There are two parts in this hill, one part is the waterfall which to me, is absolutely breathtaking because I rarely saw any waterfall in KL...I mean...come on...where got?????


Happy to be there!! =D

On the way up to the seven wells, it started raining. But since we climbed halfway already, we decided to give the go. Rarely there is such heavy rain and strong wind.

The wind is so strong it even blew a tree onto one of the rest house there. Ok, I was bloody kidding...Its already like that when we got there...haha.

There was a lot of cloud over the mountains around the area. The weather then is so cooling and wet. Hahaha. Glad we didn't go onto the cable car that day. Spot the cable car? That was a while before it went into the cloud and sorta...disappeared! Haha.

We're all wet when we got up there. We're(mostly me) all squeezing shirts to dry ourselves up a bit more. I think I'm the most wet up there.

Scorpion on the way down!

On the way back down, its really scary! Wind were still strong and what I witnessed freaked me out more! There were big tree branches falling from trees...shit. I don't think I fancy one falling on my head! So thats why no pictures of branches. Scared shitless, can say I almost flew down the hill. I was so fast downhill, I'm leading the guys...total contrast to earlier climb where I was the snail of the pack. Hahaha.

When driving back to hotel, we even saw a downed tree. Pitiful. Lucky the road is not blocked. If not die kao kao.

So that is roughly the adventure we had in Langkawi. I'm glad I didn't have bad hangover. So I was still able to explore the place a bit.

So with everyone safe and sound, we woke up early on the last day to go back.

Darren and his happy face

Zi Yian and his driving-cuckoo-style face






I think all agree Gok Hau's the happiest. =D
