A PieCe Of My MinD

lYesterday, after church… i followed mum to the mall (Karamunsing Shopping Complex).. i saw Mr Richard (who was my Physics teacher back in Secondary School) shopping with his family, thank goodness he didnt spot me! har! har! hmm.. after we reached the mall, mum went her way n i went my way. she went to some department store to get flowers for her office (i think). i went to The Signature to get a birthday present, for Felcie. u kno what, i just notice something… its so hard to get people a birthday present! really. i went to the books department at first. thought of getting her a Chicken Soup book. she digs that type of book. but omg, soooo expensive (eventhough everything it was on sale!). since steffie suggested to buy her a teddy, i went to the toys department. wow! found a perfect, not to mention extremely cute teddy, plus, it was cheaper.. so i paid for it at the counter and had it wrapped. sheeshhh… it took the person who was in charge 20 mins to wrap the teddy! it was wrapped ridiculously flamboyant as well. =__=” i didnt say anything though.

when mum and i were near some elevator, i suddenly spotted someone who i really don’t fancy, shopping with his mum as well. hmm… wanna take a guess? well, u don’t have to. i’ll tell u. he is known at ‘that boy who used to hang out with jason’. yeah, it was Sean. as we approached him and his mum, i looked away, pretending not to see him. i reckon he saw me too and did the same. what a small world.

when we’re at this stall selling flowers, i spotted a friend whom i never met since last year. it was Dee Dee, walking by in front of me with the same old blur expression. ahahaha, kidding! i didnt think she saw me though.

today was great. had lots of fun. Since it’s her birthday, Felcie wanted to buy us movie and lunch. yay! i met them (Majoree, Samantha, Felcie, Steffie, and Stewart -Felcie’s colleauge whom i think has a great crush on her. hehe) at the arcade about 12.00pm. we played a few games and even sang a few songs at the K-box. wow, i actually sang in front of them! sang 3 songs. and u know what, they said i was good. yay! =) it was about one-ish pm when kegan finally arrived with his cousin, lloyd.

the movie was supposed to start at 1.45pm and we only had like.. 15 mins before the movie started and we didnt have lunch yet! yeah, we were pretty hungry. so, we got some snacks and went to watch the movie. it was ‘FUN WITH DICK AND JANE’. great movie! hillarious IS the word for it. u should go watch it.

after the movie, we went to Pizza Hut for late lunch. it was a great meal having me as the person who ate the most. haha… the pizzas were great, what was i supposed to do!  after lunch, we went to the arcade again. played for a while before all of us headed home.

i was so tired when i reached home. i hit the bed as soon as i saw it. woke up an hour later and gave tuition lessons to my students.

well, im all drained out. oooh.. u know what, i only drank milk for dinner. haha… was so full. aightz… wanna get some shut eye nw.

Gosh… Lately, the weather is so HOT. please rain… oh please rain… i cant stand the heat!

Yesterday was AWESOME. in the morning, i went for a driving practice with my driving instructor together with dexter (who is also currently finishing the required 8-hour driving pratice before we can proceed to the QTI test and JPJ test, after that). *sigh*… it was a terribly hot morning! i felt like a pig getting roasted in the oven while driving the car. we DID NOT turn on the air-conditioner (insisted the instrustor in order to save i-don’t-know-thing-a-majic). anyways, dexter and i are good drivers ( i reckon, ); and driving the car up the hill & then having the car immobile and mobile again, parking the car, and doing the ‘3-angle’ (3 pepenjuru) driving were like a walk in the park. easy peasy.. we felt like idiots doing those things for 2 hours, really. ahaha… but i would be a tiny bit nervous when it comes to driving on a busy road. hmm.. still need pratice on that. anyways, i got home around noon time. i got on-line for a while until annie sms me asking me if kegan and i are gonna hang out with them at the mall a little later.

when kegan said ‘yes’, i got ready in a jiffy. cause it was already 1pm and the movie that we wanted to catch was around 2 -3 pm. anyways, since none of us had cars of our own, we each took a bus to the mall. YES, the BUS - public transportation! oh my gosh!.. heh..we (annie, yikyu and i) met up at Centre Point (as usual) and got us some movie tickets. we bought tickets to The Pink Panther Movie. the show was at 3.45pm and we had aproximately 90 mins to kill. so, we decided to play pool. yeah, POOL. we started the game without kegan. about 15 mins into the game, he arrived with lloyd (his cousin). we had a great time playing pool. i actually managed to get a few balls into the hole. yay! … after playing  for an hour, we went to Burger King to get some late lunch. after lunch, we hurried to the cinema. we got to the movie just in time. it was an okay movie. not great, though. the humour tactics used in the move were mostly cliches and as if played by the book. but there were a few extremely hillarious scenes.

Yikyu gave me a ride home that afternon. OMG.. thank goodness her parents were not the strict or serious type. i got back home about 6.30pm. i took a short nap and woke up at 8.00pm to watch American Idol. i really like Taylor Hicks, David Rudford and Elliot Yamin. they’re really talented singers.

after that, i watch Project Runway. How stupid was Heidi.. she eliminated Nora instead of the fegget Austin. fuck.. hm..

before i went into bed, i read a few stories of the book of Genesis from the Holy Bible. i don’t know what came over me. i just have this urge of reading the Holy Bible since yesterday. yay!

you should read the Bible too, if you’re a Christian, that is. did you know? the Holy Bible is the world’s number one best-selling book EVERY YEAR (no, not Harry Potter, not Lord Of The Rings, not The Memoirs Of Geisha, it’s the Holy BIBLE) and also the world’s hotels’ most often stolen item.

hahaha this is so TRUE..

Yesterday was a terrible day for me! It was Sunday and Dad had to visit my sick grand-step-mother in kampung. Mum and my gramma (my mum’s mum) go to a Basel Church. They are not Catholics (like dad, my bro and I). So, usually, on Sundays, my bro and i would go to a Catholic Church with my Dad. but since my dad had to leave for kampung early yesterday, he dropped us at the Sacred Heart Cathedral and told us Mum would pick us up right after the Sunday Mass has ended. Mum told me she would be a bit late but it turned out, she was exactly 1 hour late. my bro and i was upset (as in pissed off). my bro could have driven the car to send my mum and gramma to their church, picked them up after their mass has ended, and have the car all to ourselves. that would be much easier. this is just one of the many problems we (as a family of Catholics and Protestant) face occasionally. not because we don’t believe in the same God, but because of the circumstances that follow due to the difference between Catholics and Protestants. *sigh*. sometimes, i just wish my family is an all-Catholic family. in that way, our family would face less problems. i know my family isn’t the only family facing this sort of situation. i have a friend who shares the same family drama, whose name i shall not mention.

after mum picked us up, the atmosphere in the car was totally silent. everyone was kinda pissed off.. well, who wouldnt be?. gramma tried her best to calm us down but she failed. we went for brunch at a Chinese restaurant and things got settled. we were talking again. after brunch, i went to Trinity to play games with Steffie while waiting for kegan.

We (kegan, adrie, serena, steffie and i) went to visit a few friends at the Papar National Service Camp… it was a cold day - raining, to be precise. when we got out of the car, we met marcie’s parents. i said ‘hi’ to them; didn’t know what else to say. haha… talk about awkwardness! after filling in some forms, we waited for our friends to come and meet us at the ‘meeting tent’, if you will. we talked about a lot of stuffs.. about SPM, about what happened recently, about valentines’ day, etc. we left about an hour after we arrived. as we were about to leave, it started to rain heavier than before. we said our goodbyes and hurried over the bridge and towards the car. it was so cold.. to top that off, kegan let the air conditioner on. i kept almost silent throught out the ride back. i guess, i didn’t know what to say. hmm..

i got back home around 5pm and took my shower immediately after that. i made some tuna sandwich and ate it while watching some show. and then, i took my nap. (okay now, this is just useless information! ahaha j/k).. i woke up 3 hours later. i had a terrible nightmare! i had a nightmare too last night, and another one the night before, and another one the afternoon before, and so on. come to think of it, i had nightmares each time i sleep/nap since last week! i don’t know whats wrong.. must be the anxiety of getting my SPM result kicking in. but then, i remembered kegan telling me about a common kadazandusun belief saying that people shouldnt sleep in the afternoon after 5 pm as evil spirits would disturb you in your sleep. hmmm…

later that night, i had a stupid (not to mention unneccesary) fight with my bro, which he won with the support of my dad. what the fuck. all i said was "sial". apparently, he rubbed it the wrong way. he has always said the same so-called offending word to me and i never take it that personally. i was so pissed off to a point where all i could think of is revenge!!!! fuck fuck fuck fuck fuck. hate it when he wins. i absolutely loathed his attitude sometimes, really. but i managed to pull myself together after watching a few comedies on tv.

ATTENTION TO HARRY POTTER FANS, DO NOT, i repeat, DO NOT ATTEMPT TO READ THE FOLLOWING PARAGRAPH OF THIS BLOG. if you do, you would just regret it, unless you have already read the latest Harry Potter book.

ooooh… by the way, i’ve finished reading Harry Potter and The Half-Blood Prince. (okay, i admit it.. i kinda am a harry potter freak. uh. :P) it was a yummy and juicy book! ahaha.. who would thought the Half-Blood Prince turned out to be Professor Snape. but the ending was terrible. Snape killed Dumbledore!!!! what the fuck!? i did not see that coming.. but all in all, that extra twist in the end really made the plot extremely interesting. ..

i think i’m gonna finish reading ‘The Kingdom of The Golden Dragon’, which Ian and Brejyl gave me for my 17th birthday. i didn’t have the time to read the book before, i’ve only read half of it.

the night before (which was valentine’s night) was yet the BEST and MOST AWESOME valenetine’s i ever had.. not because i had a GF to celebrate it with.. but because me and the fellas hang out, drank and had fun like there was no tomorrow.. aharks.. it was all luke and dexter’s idea bout hanging out at a bar.. we went to this local 18-years-old-and-above-only bar.. it’s called ‘Cock and Bull’.. considering the fact that most of us were 17-year-olds that night, it was lucky for us the people who worked there didn’t even bother to check our IDs.. anyways, we were supposed to meet up at 7.00pm but i was 2 hrs late bacause i had to tutor that night. bummer… anyways, when i arrived… they were already drinking.. there were luke, dexter, edgar (dexter’s cousin), ian, audrey (ian’s friend), steffie, ruru (steffie’s colleague), ray andy, greg, gregg, mitchell, carlson, jace, lionel, chi siun, ezra, lloyd, janice, fiona, kegan, oliver, jo-anna, jayne and of course, me. we played some pool and i actually played it well compared to the first time i played the game.. i USED to suck at it.. hehe… so if ur free, call me up and maybe we can go play some pool.. haha.. anyways, we drank all night.. but too bad they only served Tiger beer instead of the usual Carlsberg.. besides that, we also had a few ’shi-sha’s (however do u spell that word?!).. it was my first time smoking that thing.. yeah well technically, it IS called smoking.. it felt great and cool.. haha.. but no worries, i’m not a smoker. for some reason, i found myself spending most of the time chatting the night away with fiona.. hm… it sparked some rumor among the fellas saying i’m getting back with my ex… yeah, right.. (please note the sarcasm)… but honestly, i just felt so relax talking to her… maybe it’s because we know each other very long and way too well.. kegan gave me a ride home that night.. reached home around 1.00 am..

that night, i couldnt sleep at all!! somehow, there was a terrible pain in my right ear. it kept me up all night.. it felt as if theres a tremendous amount of preassure against my right ear drum.. when i was finally able to doze off, it was already 6 am.. i only slept for a couple of hours..

later that morning, i had driving pratice with my tutor… it went very well eventhough it was tricky to drive the car up the hill and had the car immobile and then mobile again.. i was sweating like a pig as that morning was rather hot than usual..

nothing much happened later that day… i called the specialist center to make an appointment with the ENT surgeon but sadly, my appointment was on the next day..

well, i just came back from seeing the doctor.. it turned out, there were blisters in my right ear… don’t ask why.. i have NO idea. but the cool thing is, the doctor had a fibre optic inserted into my ear (it may sound disgusting ahaha) and i got to see what’s in my ear on the television… hahaha…

i had another anxiety attack the nite before.. it sucked.. the last time i had it was the night before SPM started.. but thankfully, this was a mild one.. anyway, the anxiety was due to the fact that SPM result will be out very soon… i heard from the news, it’s due in the middle of March. *sigh*.. back to my story, that nite.. it was about 2 am already.. as i was laying on my bed, i found myself thinking about a lot of things.. bout the dramas that r happenning involving a couple of my closest friends.. and of course, about SPM!! i was really anxious (and i AM stil anxious) bout my result.. wat could my result be? i really really really hope its staright As.. In Jesus’s name, Amen!.. it’s the only way i can get full scholarship — by scoring straight As. *sigh* as i was wondering what my result could be, my heartbeat suddenly became rapid and strangely allegretto.. a moment later, i was starting to have some difficulties breathing.. i was literally gasping for air.. and no one was there to help me.. i tried to calm myself down and it worked! *sigh*.. thats the end of the story of my anxiety attack.. ahaha..

last nite, my family and i went to our family’s friends’ house for Chap Goh Meh dinner.. which is the final day of the Chinese New Year celebration… it was good to see them again.. we had a sumptuous dinner… extremely yummy… everything is home cooked… so that makes it even better… after dinner… we all sat down… the adults having their grown-ups’ talks while the younger ones watched some tv.. since there were more kids than teens, we ended up watching "Cinderella’ on Disney Channel… ahaha… and the weirdest thing is that i watched Cinderella while enjoying a chilled can of Carlsberg! ahaha… how weird is det??????????????????? lol..

nth much happened these few days.. im jz so freaking bored wif my life rite now… i wna go bowling or catch a movie or juz go hang out!!!!!!!! im so bored staying at home all the time… *sigh* ….. life’s a rollercoaster ride… apparently, now is the boring slow steady part of the ride.

i juz received some info booklets and brochures from Nilai College… it made me think again… about where should i further my studies and what actual course i should take up.. this is so mind-boggling.. it’s like one of those jigsaw puzzles u cant seem to solve..  the last time i thought about it, i decided to become a pilot. but after what ezra told me, im not so sure bout it anymore… aviation is so damn expensive.. wish my family is as rich as ezra’s… btw, for those who didnt know, ezra is getting his personal pilot license aka ‘PPL’.. so cool… he’s pursuing his career as a pilot.. if ur reading this ezra, all the best 2 ya k.. anyways, according to the brochures i got from Nilai College… i can get 50% scholarship if i score 5As-7As in my SPM.. i can get 100% fulls cholarship if i score 8A1s and above (hopefully, Amen!)… really wish i can get full scholarship.. to those who r reading, pls pray 4 me and thanks for spending some time reading my blog.. … anyways…. im thinking of taking up aerospace engineering or civil engineering… but bottom line is, i wna be under 1 of those 2+2 programe.. u noe, 2 yrs studying in malaysia and 2 yrs overseas… the US wud be juz nice… hehe … but my dad insists me to just go to the Matriculation College… i dont tink that wud be a wise move cuz the government will eventually be the one deciding what course the students should pursue in University.. how BIAS can they be???? im not gonna elaborate on that cuz it cud stir up some sensitive issues… hm…

unth much happened yesterday nor today… but the day before was awesome!… haha… well, not really …. adrie, serena, kegan and i went to visit our friends who are currently in the national service at Papar Camp.. it was a cool place… but the journey to get there almost got us KILLED!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! kegan was behind the wheels and as usual, he was driving up to 100km per hour… the road was kinda bumpy and out of no where, there was dis huge hole… none of us saw it coming… and as our vehicle sped over the huge hole… the car was pratically flying and hit the ground real bad.. we got our heads bumped against the car ceiling real hardd…. but luckily, i got my seatbelts on.. talk about a rough ride!!!!!!!!!! …. well, things got settled down when we finnaly reach the national service camp… the place was awesome.. theres like… this suspended bridge wic connects the parking lots to the camp.. the river was so wide… i guess its a precaution step they took to avoid any NS participants from escaping..  haha… well… as i expected… marcie and the others well very delighted to see us… not rily bcuz of us.. but bcuz we brought junk food!!!!!!!!! hahahaha we chatted for a bout 2 hrs b4 we decided to call it a day.. we left around 5 pm and head home… oh btw, its a 30 min drive from KK to the Camp in papar.. hm..
