Fiffy followed me home when i packed my dinner home one night. and i realized that i forgot to tell the boss to give me less rice, so i spare some for her since she seemed desparate. i put it on a chinese newspapre that Vincent brought back last time.

when vincent came back, he was excitedly asking me, "how will you react when someone actually sends chinese newspaper all the way to manipal?"

niCk replied, "i put it there one lar...."


saw this one the way to church. my bike-ky-ker was so dead slow that i could actually take out my v3i and snap a picture of this



TYPHOON/TORNADO/HURRICANE

pastor was saying that the wind on saturday was the worst in Manipal that he'd seen ever since he came to Manipal 12 years back. that's how bad it was.

i was sleeping and i heard a multitude of crows making Xdb of noise that woke me up. looked out from my window and there the caretaker of Acharya compound was walking round and round a carcass of a cat. i suppose the tornado brought it there.


leaves and leaves all over acharya compound


and my balcony too!


i was so afraid that my roof will be blown away... thank God i never happened

Tagged by Christine a billion years ago

Instructions:Each person who gets tagged needs to write a blog post of their own 6 idiosyncrasies as well as clearly state this rule. After you state your 6 weirdness, you need to choose 6 people to be tagged and list their multiply id (or anything equivalent) at the bottom of your blog. Don't forget to leave a comment that says "You're tagged" in their comments and tell them to read your blog for information as to what it means.

nah, christine... well, it took me time to do research about myself. and since exam's over now, it's time to post this.

can i break the rule? dowanna find another six people to tag ler...

here you go...
  • i was from a typically chinese secondary school and i never like chinese. the language is simply too complicated for me. my chinese teacher always vomit blood when teaching me chinese. too bad ler i just can't get it. and the weird thing is that i was from chinese school and now i end up neither good in english nor good in chinese. if half pail of chinese water can mix with another half pail of english water to become one whole pail of water then it would be fine.

  • i do not crave for Malaysian food even i'm stuck here in Manipal. yeah! weird huh? well, to me, as long as there's food for me when i'm hungry, may it me tiger biscuits or banana, i'm ok. well, people! be content with what you have la.

  • i sleep in the exam hall. just found out that it's weird after my pharmacology paper when Lai Yin and gang was waiting for me to come out since they've finished the paper earlier. she was asking me what is so great about the paper that i need to spend one whole hour sitting there and do? actually what i do is, i finish answering all the MCQ questions in 15mins time, then i go sleep for 5-10 minutes. after that i wake up to double check all my answers one by one when my mind is slighly fresher. it works for me.

  • i cannot talk properly in a conversation with other people but when it comes to public speaking, words just flow out from my mouth. weird. i think it's because in public speaking, i'm prepared to speak what i'm gonna speak. so i have to plan for my daily conversations from morning till night.

  • i stay in cheras and i go to a church in PJ which takes me hours to go there when there's a jam. find it weird but not THAT weird though (i'm running out of thoughts...). and that's also because i only use Federal Highway to go PJ. there is a no-jam way which pastor Foo taught me to use. but still, i'm used to Federal Highway, stuck in the jam and fall asleep. (see, i'm running out of thoughts)

  • i had a liposuction in from three. kid you not! ask me for my form one pictures and compare. you can even go to HUKM (hospital UKM) to check. it was on a saturday and the operation started at 9.30am, lasted for two and a half hours. and the result was just satisfying






actually i had acute appendicitis la. and because of that operation, i lost 5kg.

whoever is interested, please do the tag... hehe. chiaos...

Happy Birthday Lai Yin!

it was Lai Yin's grand birthday on 30th May. she's no longer a teenage, and she has to wear her big big big big gold key around her neck and declare that she is an ADULT now!

the celebration was in my house. no mess at all cause the organizer promised to do the clean up for me... weerrrhahahhaha!!!

here are some pictures taken on that day.


a banner that we made to hang outside my house

yew kong cutting the fruits

watermelon

a key cake for her

final touch up on the banner. adding a lion (Lai Yin) on it

Happy Birthday!!!

oh ya! since Lai Yin's staying below my house, they did some splashing and flouring on her from my balcony. that's why she looks like a walking cake cutting the cake.

the banner. taken from my balcony

that's it, the banner.

had food from Manpal Canteen. almost 30 over people came to my tiny winnie little house.

Lilian, Lai Yin, Chun Mun, Sam and Josephine

Nina, Lai Yin and Thuba

KTT gang

" come come, wish Lai Yin happy birthday and get an angpao"

Nina, Lai Yin and Yin Yee with Anas' head

Kwee Ren, Lai Yin and Mun Yew

someone puked in the bowl. hahaha! it's actually jelly. mango jelly. it looks really weird. but when you eat it: fuiyor-ness!!!!

but this girl was too excited that she actually licked it! so we had to bare with her saliva



Lai Yin and Yan Lian

start unwrapping her pressies... and this is when my camera started to tell me that it's dying.

some one gave her a cactus. see my flash gone. it was real bright before that

my flash was totally gone...

and it came back.

after unwrapping all her pressies, she performed a few songs on the keyboard. being a diploma holder in music, how could we let her go not playing some pieces.

library... anyone?!

werhahahahaa!!! exam's over!

thanks people for the prayers and support!

especially mom! (mom to niCk: how can i help you?!) weeerrhahahahhaha!!!

practicals was totally screwed up nicely by my screw driver. now the whole world knows what supid thing i did for Gram's staining! thanks to the most beloved Angel who, as what an angel should, "send messages" to every single breathing human being in the world telling them what i did.

well, over all it was good. thank God!

today was bad! here is the series of unfortunate events:
  1. didn't feel like studying for both the practicals cause it's too nice to sleep dy
  2. had practical examination
  3. a tornado struck Manipal (to me it really was a tornado cause that's the strongest wind i've ever seen, jakunness). it started yesterday night when strong wind kept blowing and blowing till this morning. what made it worse was the rain the came with it
  4. a big branch of a big tree fell on our house due to the strong wind
  5. because of the big branch of that big tree which fell right on vincent's side of the roof, he room were flooded (to me it really was a flood cause that's the most wet condition that a room can be). and it was real bad... vincent is sad
  6. because of the leaking roof of vincent's room, vincent had to shift everything into my room for the night
  7. and because of vincent's post-exam's stuff with my post-exam room, it's a mess!
  8. went to church just now and the auto-rickshaw broke down. had to walk to church with my guitar. thank God it was just drizzling and the auto actually broke down near our church.
  9. my toilet light is not working due to the tree-falling, roof-leaking and some how it just doesn't work
  10. and my pain is very teeth (whatever)

yeah! i can probably write a "nickson's series of unfortunate events" a make it into a movie.

but i think worship was good just now! cause God is always good. when you place aside everything that happened around you, focusing on God, life is great!

news report from New Straits Times:
Woman dies after eating burger

GEORGE TOWN: A 25-year-old Vietnamese factory worker died of food poisoning after eating a burger which was bought from a pasar malam trader.

Pham Thi Thcp was rushed to the Penang Hospital early yesterday morning when she started complaining of severe stomach ache after eating the burger.

However, her condition worsened and she started vomiting blood as she was being rushed to the hospital. She died about 4.15am before she could be taken to the emergency ward.

It is learnt that Pham Thi had gone to a night market in Batu Maung with her boyfriend, also a Vietnamese, on Tuesday night.

Her hostel mates said Pham Thi ate the burger before going to bed.Shortly afterwards, she started moaning in pain and cried out for a glass of water.

Her hostel mates immediately alerted their supervisor, who called an ambulance when her condition worsened.

Meanwhile, Penang Hospital pathologist Datuk Dr Bhupinder Singh said a post-mortem showed Pham Thi had died from food poisoning.

Samples from the deceased’s stomach had been sent for analysis to determine what caused the poisoning, he added.Dr Bhupinder said the Balik Pulau Health Department had been alerted about the incident to enable them to take action and check on the food being sold at the night market.

Southwest deputy police chief DSP Lai Fah Hin said police would treat the case as sudden death pending further investigation.

Lai Yin and Yin Yee, want Ramli Burger some more?! I belanja!

Learn to say NO

one cold winter night, there's not much oil left in the lighthouse but just enough for the functioning of the lamp till morning.

suddenly, an old woman from a village nearby came knocking on the door.

"may i have some oil please?" she said "I've ran out of oil at home and i need some to keep myself warm"

the person in the lighthouse told her "but i only have enough oil here to function this light house till morning"

"yeah! i know, but the weather is seriously killing me. would you please..."

he gave in and pack some oil for the lady.

the next day, it was found out that a ship sank and thousands of people died because the ship lost its navigational aid that night.

i know i'm not a good story-teller, nor a fruitella, nor a gardinia (or whatever).

read this story in Developing the Leadership Within You by John Maxwell and the book is not with me, so i had to write it in my own powderful england.

the point is, LEARN TO SAY NO (title)
"you don't need to say YES all the time! if you know you can't do it"


saying no is not easy. seriously. nobody feels good rejecting other people. but one thing is for sure, we have a limit. well at least i do have a limit. i can get tired, i can get exhausted.

priority, one of the big words when you talk about leadership. and John Maxwell put it nicely in that book.

yeap! just a short and sweet sharing.

had a nightmare yesterday. really scary. i woke up and "thank God!"
a personal one, so i'm not gonna share what i dreamed about.
