Hasta La Vista Neri

Ah, still remember when Neri reached Malaysia this time I was in Youth Camp, her sister asked us out for dinner with her but none of us could. Haha, too bad. I was thinking that she would stay here for quite a long time. Yea, it was indeed a long time, but time flies, remember? And she is now flying too! Flying back to Austrialia.

No, I am not going to fall into nostalgia again. No more reviewing back what she had done with us. I used to know I am too emotional, too sentimental, at least as a guy I am. I can't bear the feeling of losting something, friends, time etc. Last time when I came back to Penang during holidays and went back to KL again, I would feel like crying. The first time I experienced such heart-breaking feeling was in 2001, when I was taken back to my own home, separated from my grandma after living with her for 6 years. Even though we were not far at all, and we still see each other everyday, but I just couldn't bear that. Later on in my life I experienced much more of this.

However this time, I don't feel like emo. Haha. I can imagine Neri's expression when she reads this and she will probably be thinking " What the!? You don't miss me at all?" haha. I do miss you a lot kay, but I am not really going to sit in front of my desk and think it over and over again, picturing your plane flies over my condominium, listening close to any noise from the sky, then only I realize, your plane is supposed to fly towards another direction.XD I can't pretend the airplanes in the night skies are like shooting stars too.Of course we hope you can stay with us for a longer time, but you gotta go.

Why.

I start to learn that you know reaching-leaving, come in and out, is part of parcel of life. We had a very nice time when you were here, we didn't have war and we were perfectly in peace. So, that is not much for me to regret of. You are going to come back, don't you?

I anticipate you arrival, I accept your departure.

I took 17 years to learn about this. We are the sole soujourners on this earth. We came to this world alone ( except the twins in America, whatever they do wherever they go they're together, but perharps not for toilet's time.) Similarly we are going to die alone too. Is there a kingsize coffin? Since we can reach this earth alone, why must we have company every minute? I am not saying we don't need friends, but we must be clear that friends won't forever by your side, even though they are forever alone. Ha.

A few days before you left, you helped to make my 18th birthday celebration a success. It was a great one, I don't know why I keep repeating, haha. The noon time lunch was really a nice plot. XD You all were too clever. I surrender. But I need to clarify here, I was not disappointed for the watermelon cake and lunch k. If you all didn't offer me that in the afternoon I would probably sit at home and wait for the night surprise. Haha.

Now, Neri's not here anymore, QQ and Pokok are in jail, J ,Wee Rock and Mingboy are locked up in the classroom, Yan Fen starts to work, Fish is in the aquarium, the original Citra Team just left Rou Yi and me who are 'free mobile'. I am working too but I am totally free in the afternoon. Haih, how ah Rou Yi? Your mum says she doesn't want to see you at home right, we find something to do ba.

Okay,

 HASTA LA VISTA NERI!!

Underworld : Awakening

Underworld! The first 18 PL movie we watched in GSC LEGALLY!

We will never forget the day, which proved that we're adults once again.

I was already in Lunar New Year ( my dad said saying Chinese New Year is a little bit racist.) holiday mood on that friday, you know when you start to work you will thirst more for holidays to reach by crossing out dates on the calendar ever than during your schooling days.

Pokok was back to drive us out again!! It was so excited, not because of we were going out again, but we were going out like a family. Sitting inside Pokok's Citra you will have that feeling. His car is large and comfy enough to fit 7 persons. We need not to reach a destination by separate cars. The most amazing thing was even though I kept making noise, Pokok could still brought us there safely. Haha.

UNDERWORLD : AWAKENING is a significant movie to me because finally we can enjoy the thrill of an above 18 movie without fear. Let the officers go up and down to check for 'intruders', we are not afraid to show our identity card anymore. Do you still remember a month ago what happened there at the entrance of GSC?15 of us were blocked and chased. 

That friday, when we entered the ticket check point, all of us felt excited. Before that we would be nervous to pass through it, we acted like an adult, we were afraid of being called to show IC. But now on that day, we just headed to it without any plans and strategies, no more what a guy pairs with a girl to act like a couple or any nonsense. We were even hoping that they would check our ICs, we clutched our ICs in hands and ready to 'show hand'. We slowed down our paces, waiting them to call us. However, they seemed like not going to check. Hmm, quite disappointed. At last, they requested our ICs! Yeah! We gladly showed them! In our hearts we thought : " Want to see ah, nahh, see until you're syok!"

Somehow they knew our thoughts, returning us the cards and said " Wahh, baru lapan belas ah." with a grin.

This experience was fantastic! You will enjoy that moment one day if you are still under 18. Be patient. Then you will miss the days when you need to break in like robbing a bank.

Okay~enough adventures. Let's talk about the movie.

In fact I don't like scary and horror movies. If not the sake of 18 PL, I will not risk my heart to be stopped one or two second. Lucikly it was not a ghost movie, or else I would close my eyes until the movie ended. It was just a little bit , er, bloody. Anyway I still could bear it. All I did was picturing myself as a surgeon, I am trained to see all these bloody scenes.

But it was really really bloody. The way they kill, I advise you to choose alternative ways if you want to murder someone one day. Haha.Firstly, you need not to shock yourself with the opened wounds and bones.

I never watch the prequels before. The good part of it was I could still catch up with the story line. It's all about humans, vampires and werewolves again. The war between these creatures in Underworld was far exciting than the Twilight Saga. The way the vampires fight with the Lycans, wow, was much more watchable and cool than how they fight in Breaking Dawn. There were a lot of actions, unlike mere pushing and yelling in Breaking Dawn.

One common thing I found from 2 movies was, all vampires seem to have the same jumping high and fast motion super power. Perharps this is the typical characteristic of a vampire? Just like they are afraid of sunlight and drink blood to sustain life? On the other hand, werewolves are not quite the same. The werewolves in both movies need not to wait until full moon to transform.

Anticipating Resident Evil and G.I. Joe this year!

18 PL

Thud thud.Finally I am 18! I need not to worry about being caught by those officers in GSC when we watch above 18 movies again! Yeah! I am considered an adult! Facebook introduced me some new privacy settings for adults. This means I have to bear responsibilities, I am not a child anymore. I know it is very hard for me, but this is the rite of passage which I have to go through, I will not fear, I will not be afraid.

27th of January 2012!! A wonderful day. I shall not forget the 24 hours of the day.

Last year we did crazy things, we KRS group celebrated in the school compound. We built up fire and had a BBQ illegally. Haha.

This year! Something even crazier, I called it insanely great!

I don't know where to begin the story. I am afraid my english will ruin the grand surprise they intended to give. From the photos on Facebook you can see.

It was really a surprise for me. Haha. I heard that you all wanted to disappoint me by having a small celebration only. Perharps you all always hear that I keep on stressing on my birthday. In fact I am only joking all the time. I really don't expect such big celebration. But without you all taking it seriously I would not have such amazing birthday!haha.

I only expect to have a meal with you all and that's all. So the watermelon with candle and lunch at Kun Thai had done the job. I was not disappointed lah. You all didn't forget my birthday and willing to spend time with me, I really appreciate that. You see, not everyone is willing to show up or perharps they have their own events.

Fish said I am too hard to be fooled. Well, indeed yes. hahaha. I am too sensitive to the changes of surroundings, just like Rou Yi said I am very sensitive to the camera shots. It is just a matter to continue to find out what's wrong or let the plans go on. XP However, even though I sensed something wrong, but you all made an effort to distract me from it.

I was wondering why suddenly Neri asked Rou Yi to go to the kitchen.

I was wondering why you all shouted when Jing entered the kitchen.

I decided to take a look but Rou Yi and Wen Nee kept on talking to me.

I was wondering why Neri, Jing and Fish just disappeared from Teacher's car during the second round. Yan Fen said that's something wrong in Jing's house, so teacher dropped her off. But why Neri and Fish jumped off the car too? Yan Fen stopped me from asking more questions by saying I can't accept they didn't say goodbye. Ya, why they didn't call up and say something? I wanted to give one of them a call to show some concern, but I was afraid they would shoot me again.

So I shifted the attack to teacher. I asked her why they were. She answered they had some stuff to do. I continued to ask where she dropped them. And guess what, teacher answered : " I DON'T KNOW!"

You don't know where you drop them? Wow. Haha. I knew that was something else happening. However, I laughed it off, lazy to care about it.

You all were preparing the watermelon in the kitchen. You all were doing cards in J's house.

Ohya, thank you very much for your underwear too!!I will wear it everyday without washing it until next year!yeah!!

You all really planned hard for this, especially Neri, stealing my dad's number from the beginning. And you all were willing to take the risk too!!That I will by personality try hard to find out what's going on and you know I am ego enough to not to be fooled. Haha.I guess its because of that small celebration, it camouflaged your big surprise.As I said I thought we would have a meal and just like that.

And the last event of the day was Karaoke at Rou Yi's house. Fish ah, those amazing videos just upload to your blog enough la. Actually Facebook also can lah. I don't mind.=)

THANK YOU TO ALL OF YOU!!!

I WILL NOT DISAPPOINT YOU!!!

HAPPY 18TH MATTNIFICENT BIRTHDAY MATT!!

I Love Hong Kong 2012

喜上加喜!

2012 会不会像2011那样充满回忆、艰辛和冒险?可能会吧,不,一定会,绝不让这三百多个日子白白平淡从十指间溜走。平平淡淡,从来没有和我有过交集。我个人比较喜欢轰轰烈烈,干什么都一样,搞得很夸张。就像那天柔仪大姐说的一样,低调从来不和我画上等号。这样的我,你是不会了解的,但你说不了解不代表不喜欢。我觉得没有不喜欢也不意味着喜欢。


好了,说说这部戏吧。我觉得农历新年一定要看贺岁片才会过得更加有意义,不是吗?来点搞笑的是最好。但是近来的片子虽然多,但未必好看。本土贺岁片可能没那么精彩,但能让我们感同身受,产生共鸣。


有曾志伟的戏肯定不会闷,就算拍得真的很废很无里头,你也会在笑破肚皮上了厕所之后才发现的。


唯一让我无法接受的是,他们拷贝了《那些年,我们一起追的女孩》。哈哈。当主题曲《那些年》前奏响起,我就大感不妙


不过,这还是一部不错的电影,虽然有一点黄色。

*

我在初一看这部电影。应该说是年初二凌晨吧。震杰在傍晚六点突然拨电给我,不久我便在他的车上了。到油站加油掀开了另一场没有精心设计的外出的序幕。我们兜兜转转载了斯豪就在他家讨论好去处。


最后还是约不着其他人,我们三只好上路了。到了戏院,比较早的戏票都卖完了,就买了凌晨一点二十五分的。看了看手表,距离好戏开场还有几个小时,就到处兜寻找晚餐。


享受了另一番浪费车油的乐趣,我们十点在自动城(auto city )的寿司王吃宵夜吧。


三个男人饭后一起绕着小市走呀走,聊呀聊,感觉还不赖。XD 我们还在太阳路购物商场内的一处坐在地上谈心事呢。


回到家已是三点半了。听说我下车之后震杰还被警察拦截。


这一回这么“早” 回到家,妈妈没有说什么,其实也得到了她的恩准,只不过被外婆念了三天三夜而已。

重回路上

你  别来无恙。



被骂在所难免,工作总会遭上头的责骂,唯独我没这个成长的机会,我工作时都在叫妈妈的。忍辱是我要学的,负重已学了一些些。但有时真的沉不住气。

最近看着镜子,头上的三千烦恼丝已长到了三千寸。科学家说,地壳是不停地运动并相互挤压。这促成了山的形成,也说明了山是会不断地长高。唔,我的头发也一样。一层一层地盖着,蛮重的,而且也越来越乱了,长得太没规矩了,从前像鸟窝,现在像草丛。除此之外,还接到了许多投诉,说是时候除草了。哎,说真的不是我不想除啊,农历新年快到了,我是怕太早修剪会早长啊。

好了,又离题了。

车祸后的车总是怪怪的。重新坐上驾驶座的感觉也很怪,可以说是战战兢兢吧。少芬姐约我们吃饭,哪来推辞的理由,放工后我浩浩荡荡地驱车载了柔仪(还蛮喜欢跟她聊天的,尤其是当她自恋地说她是环球小姐,或者说她的莫林,真的很滑稽。)、媛芬和鱼儿到阿帕思(Apex)去会合。

咱们在车上聊得狠兴致,虽然停车时由于某种“特殊的情况”花上了些时间。她们这一般是非常有纪律的乘客,决不大声尖叫。哈哈。捏你啊,你啊,别伤心啦,你的危机意识很强而已,如果世界明天末日,记得通报以下哦,让我可以到班台可啦处看最后一个日落。谢谢。

说到到海边看日落,少芬姐说什么到班台不屑(Pantai Bersih)去?啊,我的童年是那里的夕阳和海风陪我度过的呀。那里的太阳总是躲到光大的背后。

对了,少芬姐穿着小圆点的衣服提了三块蛋糕来。我还大费周章地推断哪块最好吃呢。谢谢您啦,祝我生日快乐!

这一次的午餐虽没能像上次一样跑几站,但我们还是聊得很开心。下一个节目是这班姐妹看我剪头发。她们很想看看草丛蜕变成美丽花园的过程,亦或是见证神山的伫立。很可惜,静霓无法参与这神圣的一刻,我得先送她回家。

车子缓缓走着,突然发现快没油了!媛芬说得对,开车不怕迷路,只怕没了油!没油就意味着失去安全感。失了安全感就等于没了安全。你猜在这样艰难、千钧一发的时刻我做了什么呢?不是拨电求助,而是当机立断地撑到加油站添油。够厉害吧。XD

可是到了加油站问题又来了,该添多少呢?一番深思熟虑之后,帮了哥哥打了十令吉的。这个地方就是上次我处女添油时只添了四十仙的案发现场。真是的,有够丑。可喜的是,这一次有了招待员帮我的忙:

阿里:Guna kad?

我 :Tidak, guna cash. (sorry,no card.)

阿里:Nak berapa?

我:10 cukup la.

阿里:Ok,wahh, dalam kereta semua Ah Moi ah.

我:Tidaklah, semua kawan sahaja.(我不知道为什么我酱讲,好像有点答非所问耶)

阿里:Pergi Penang ke?

我:Tak adalah, lari-lari di sini saja.(walao A 十块钱的油能到槟城咩)

过后我们又浩浩荡荡地理发去。柔仪大姐介绍的,她是想把我的公鸡头搞成像她的头盔头吧?对了,柔仪啊,我不习惯在理发时这样的情况下说话,我知道你不习惯没有我的声音,你就忍忍吧。

她们过一会儿就去买饮料了,然后站在玻璃墙外盯着我看。这是我人生第一次同朋友一起理发,准确的说是被观看,而且还是跟一群女的。

好了,我过新年的头,就这样了。其实还真的很帅气啦。谢谢柔仪大姐!

Happy Birthday Khai Cheat!


我 还在努力。

The Opening Ceremony of St. Joseph @ Gurney Paragon

I will tell you about Qnet next time, but I wonder it worths to be here or not. My left leg was in, but I used my right leg to jump out of it. Haha. Next time, if I still remember, will tell you the story.

All of you often go to Gurney Plaza, I am pretty sure of it. Have you ever noticed some years ago, probably you were still young and just like monkeys, there are some old buildings along the Gurney drive beside the Plaza? I have totally no impression.

There was a church with the name Saint Joseph. I think the building is under the supervision of UNESCO heritage, that's why when they built Gurney Paragon the building is preserved.

I love Gurney Plaza, I think I will vote her as the best shopping mall in Penang if there is such ranking. =)

However, I feel like I started to love Gurney Paragon, she is younger and prettier, haha, giving you a different feeling. The cheapest condominiums at Gurney Paragon cost RM2.4 million. WOW! Nevermind, I will try my best to own one since I like to gaze at the sea.

Okay, why there isn't anybody asks me why on earth I attended the opening ceremony of St. Joseph at Gurney Paragon?

-________________-

My brother and his partner's  company had been invited to the event. The two young directors were given a chance to demo their products there. So his partner's girl friend and I went to help unofficially and were proud to be the first unofficially workers.

They used our Flux chairs from Holland as the VVIP seats on the stage.


Nah, this one. Want to have a try? Visit my house ba.

I really thank my brother for giving me such a chance to attend the event. It was not because I can see Mr Lim Guan Eng in person, but I was in the midst of successful businessmen and entrepreneurs. The event was very class. In fact, I learnt many things and my mind was further broaden ( Open big eye border ). The way they communicate, the way to present your products, the place was splendid. This experience is memorable.

Yeah, one day I will be an entrepreneur, one day I will be one of them. XD

This event is a start.
