UPDATES

I KNOW.

It's been like a century since I've posted anything up here. Well finally today I feel like writing down EVERYTHING (almost) and so, yeah..

Let's see now, my last post was about Games Carnival. So now I'll talk about INTERHOUSE DANCE :)

INTERHOUSE DANCE '11, 29th April.

They canceled off cheerleading this year and replaced with interhouse dance competition. I was a bit disappointed because I was thinking of trying out cheerleading. Oh well. We trained HARD for this dance. We danced to the song Miss Independant and Dead & Gone. For the video, click here. The practices were the best part of this. Our dancers include :

• Phoebe and Weng Fai
• Farah and Ching Yong
• Syazana and Chin Yew
• Najiha and Bryan
• Me and Navian

Practice is always funny. Ching Yong doing his dead fish. Bryan and Navian doing the Ninja Run. Everyone of us doing the Harimau "Scooby Dooby Doo" move. Saying DES to every sentence. Fooling around trying to figure out the dance steps. And Domino's during 1 of the practice :D Always rushing to book the studio before the other houses do. The most epic practice was when we were stuck in the small practice room in CPAC because the Dance Studio 1 was taken by Seladangs. They were spamming the "ENJOOOOOOOOOOY" in the beginning of the song. And dancing to the song Begging. IT WAS THE BEST! We got 2nd in our category, Seladang 3rd and Beruang 1st. Personally, I think Helang did a VERY VERY GOOD JOB. I loved their dance. I reached school around 6.30? I forgot it was 5.30 or 6.30. I think it's 6.30am. Booked the North Hall for a short practice and went to get ready. It was a good day :) We went up on the stage while the judges were calculating the marks and danced like mad. The pros were doing their popping, locking or breaking or whatever and we were actually just watching as audience. Then we, the Harimau Category 3, decided to go up and own them with our "Scooby Doo" dance. When we got up, about everyone from category 3 Cheras was there, except for Suwei and Amandy cause they were wearing heels. WE DID THE ULTRAMAN DANCE ON STAGE AND WE TOTALLY OWNED IT. Everyone was following our dance. EVERYONE. WE OWN YOU POPPING LOCKING BREAKING. Had my spot put later after the dance competition and Tug of war was on the same day too. We had a Form 5s Tug Of War after everything ended. Science vs Commerce. It was unfair. Commerce was full of big people and Science has more skinny people. And so we beat them by our strategy. When they pull, we let go. When they fall down, we pick up the rope and PULL. Damn we're awesome. More photo sessions after that. I miss that day :(

Oh and lastly, a BIG thanks for Phoebe and Weng Fai for choreographing the awesome dance. And also to NAVIAN, my dance partner :D We rock, partner.

SPORTS DAY '11, 30th April

This year it was held in Bukit Jalil MSN Stadium. I am SO GLAD 'cause it's like 5 minutes from my house. Means I don't have to go to school early like last year to get to the stadium. Last year was in UPM (or UKM, I forgot). This year, well, because of the sports for all, everyone has to go for every field event during sports rehearsal. We get 2 points for every event IF we pass the minimum requirement. I passed everything except for running. I HATE RUNNING!! Okay so this year I'm kinda the co-captain for March Pass. I love my top hat :D Only me and Jiaying wore a top hat. And my wand was golden. A-W-E-S-O-M-E. My cape was black too. We got 3rd for March Pass, WHICH WAS A BIG SURPRISE!!! We made a mess cause of the confetti and I thought we were gonna get penalized till we have negative marks. Harimaus got 1st overall for Sports Day :) Oh and we had a picnic IN THE MIDDLE OF THE TRACK before they announced the results. We celebrated by dancing Ultraman Dance in the middle of the field. It was EPIC. After that I had a small BBQ at my house, a kind of house warming? Cause I didn't invite any Cempakans over during the house warming, so I made this BBQ a house warming for them. Amanda didn't come. It was fun. Most of them bathe at my house. It drizzled a bit but then it stopped just in time for photos. Ding and Suwei slept over at my house, and so did Khay Wenn. We chatted till 3am and went up to my room. OH YEAH and Weng Fai brought the Tequila he and Suwei bought when they went Phuket for the diving. Half of the bottle was finished that night. The bottle is still with me, though. We walked to Mamak for breakfast the next day.

FAI'S BIRTHDAY, 13th May.

His birthday is actually 15th of May, but because our VIP, Chan Loch Yeen, was going to China on 14th, we had to make it on a Friday. We went to Mid Valley to celebrate his birthday. Dinner at TGIF. Me, my bro, Qian Er, Fai and Lochy waited for May Shuen but then she was so late, we had to finish everything and just meet her up for the movie. Fai was quite high that day. He was shouting a lot. Finally we have a full family portrait. IN POLAROID. There was another table celebrating a birthday and the TGIF staff were doing their typical birthday thingy. Fai was like "Don't you dare do that to me". But then, after he said that, the TGIF staff took out the birthday cake and he was COMPLETELY STUNNED. The lady was like, Oh then you must be the birthday boy. Fai was forced to shout "HEY EVERYONE, IT'S MY BIRTHDAY TODAY" to the whole restaurant and if he failed to do so, he has to stand on the chair throughout the whole celebration. He got all blushed up like a tomato. Damn funny, I tell you. We laughed till our stomachs hurt. Was so full, we had a hard time finishing up the cake. We went for THOR later, and it was a super show. I NEED A HORSE! Fetched Lochy back and on the way back Shuen called and said she needed the ride home, and so my bro U-turned back to fetch her. The guard at Lochy's house was being, I dunno, LC? He was gonna hit the Van driver before us. Made the traffic stuck because of him. Stupid, wasted like 10 minutes waiting for them to settle their problem. By the time we reached home, it was already midnight.

Okay so after that there's nothing much, except for a bit of drama in school. Mid-year was dreadful. It was the first time EVER I studied so hard for an exam. I kinda lost it the night before Bio. Was feeling so stressed and tired, mostly because of the Confined Water Training for diving. I was like studying till late night, WITHOUT nagging from my parents. I don't know what got to me. I was crazy. Oh and 21st May was Suwei's Party :) The first party I went in Cempaka. Her birthday was combined with Suli's birthday and her elder sis's farewell. I wasn't feeling well during the party and was kind of having a hard time. I don't remember much from it.

SUWEI'S BIRTHDAY, 27th May.

Suwei's Birthday :) Last day of Mid-year. I only have Maths paper 1 and they have Accounts that day too. I finished up the video while they were having accounts. Showed it during Lunch in CLASS with the projector. Was a bit of a fail surprise cause she saw it before we showed it. We went to Mid Valley after school, STRAIGHT after school. Went for Yogi Tree, then Bowling, then Sushi Zanmai, then Movie. Watched THOR (again). Suwei had a "cramping sensation". She had leg cramps when we played bowling, and when we walked to the toilet. She just fell on the floor and there we were, massaging her at the toilet entrance. Vincy, Bling, Zhung Faye and Weng Fai came to her rescue later and Weng Fai stretched and massaged her at the FEMALE WASHROOM ENTRANCE. It was weird, no doubt. And every single person that passed by was staring at us with the "what the f***" look. Oh well, at least it's a memorable day for Suwei :) Happy Birthday again, dear :)

28th - 30th May SILVER DIVING EXPEDITION TO PULAU PERHENTIAN.

Suwei and Weng Fai was supposed to join this expedition. But then the both of them couldn't make it, so it was only me and my buddy, Khay Wenn (aka Bling). Xiong went on this trip, too. It was nice. We stayed in Flora Bay Resort. My roommate was Le Faye. Our instructor was Ms Sabriya. For the both nights, Bling and I walked down the beach to get reception and we called our parents and Suwei. We talked on the loudspeaker with Suwei for more than an hour. The stars were amazing. Bling was fiddling with his camera for the whole 2-3 hours on the beach. A fish bit me when I was diving. We saw sharks, stingray, box pufferfish and more. Bling and I took A LOT of photos, to make the both of them jealous. And so we got our license :) "You are now talking to a certified open water diver". The last dive was with Bling, MY BUDDY! Took a lot of pictures and we did the ULTRAMAN DANCE underwater. How cool are we..? Camwhore underwater. How cool are we..? The snorkle test was seriously sickening. I puked, literally. They mixed, what, chocolate milk with veggies and fruits with chilli sauce with pepper with coca-cola and I don't know what else. It was BAD. They poured all over and my hair caught the liquid. Went back and showered IMMEDIATELY. We bought chocolates as souvenirs for our friends back in school.

AND NOW..

On Thursday (2nd June) I got my letter. My AFS letter for the interview. I literally SCREAMED. I thought they weren't gonna entertain my form. It was incomplete and when we took the left out form to the office, I thought they were just gonna put it aside. I was scheduled for 10th of June in SMK (P) Pudu. I cried on the phone when I was talking to Vincy and Amandy. I was laughing, laughing then I cried. FIRST TIME, tears of joy. Weng Fai got his letter the next day, but he was scheduled for Tuesday, in Shah Alam. And then later I got ANOTHER letter saying that I have to go for the interview on Tuesday in Shah Alam, too. Apparently my name was in both namelist but I have to go according to the school address. You couldn't believe how nervous I was with this and stressed, too.

Monday (7th June) We went Shangri-la for the prom thing. But in the morning I went to school to see Pn.Aimi but she wasn't around, so picked up Vincy and went to Pavilion. Ate, walked around and then sat in Snowflakes. Updating each other about things in school and Bling arrived. Went to EAT again, and then just window shopped. We spent quite some time in the DC superheroes shop. After that we walked to Shangri-la and met Ding, Ching Yong and Jit Kian on the way. We reached Shangri-la JUST IN TIME. After discussing, Zi Ling's mom belanja-ed us in the pastry shop in Shangri-la. THANKS AGAIN, AUNTIE!! Went home while discussing the interview thingy with Weng Fai, and I was so tired, I off-ed everything by 9.30pm. Slept around 10.30pm or something.

THE NEXT MORNING.

8th June, 2011. The Day.

Met up with Weng Fai there. The place was Jabatan Pelajaran Selangor or something. We met Sammy, who is also from Cempaka, but in international, there. I met E Hong there too. Apparently he signed up for 8 weeks in Italy. The wait before the interview was FUN. There was no sign of nervousness actually. The AFS volunteers made it so relaxed and fun. We played games and got to know almost everyone there. The epic one was "No water in toilet, grab your toilet tissue first" and we were supposed to tell 1 thing about ourselves for every tissue we took. Then after that was the funky chicken, then we were separated into 5 groups. My group leader was Ismael (aka Izzy). He went to Egypt for the year program 2 years back. He told us everything we kind of need to know if we get selected. He spoke a few arabic sentence to us, too. He's funny, and looks like Kev Jumba. My interview was kind of a disaster, but....AIHHH... It's over already, don't wanna think about it too much..We played the EGG throwing thing like we did back in form 3 after PMR. Wrapped it in balloon and newpapers and masking tape, and threw it. If it didn't break, then we win. But ours broke, unfortunately. Had to do the Mississippi dance in front of everyone. After that was the drawing thing. Then after that was a Q & A session. Weng Fai drove to the mamak after it ended, and my mom joined us there. When we finished eating, we saw the group of AFS Volunteers pulling up. Izzy and Nicholas were asking "Are you 2 siblings?" and we just played along and said yes. HAHA.

Wednesday was my undang test, FAILED IT. 40/50.

Thursday, which is today. Went to Yih Herng's house with Yoon Teen to do the BM thing. His house is HUGE. The BM thing was a bit of a fail. But, okay la, can survive la.

Games Carnival '11

The last week of March till the first week of April. Games Carnival '11.

I signed up for Table Tennis, Softball and Frisbee.

The schedule goes like this:

On Sunday midnight, I got a phone call asking me to go for tennis because there was not enough players, and I have to just show up so we don't have to forfeit the match. And so, I went for tennis on Monday with no experience whatsoever. I've never even touched a tennis racquet before and I'm expected to play. First match was with Seladang and I was in girls doubles with Savira. We lost =P, but overall we won Seladang and had to face Helang in the finals. We kinda forfeited the match to Helang 'cause we had to walkover my match (my partner went home ==), but 2nd place is much much much better than I expected. I thought we would get last.

I didn't play anything on Tuesday, just cheer, and cheer, and cheer, and lepak. Went to the art gallery and got paint on wrist which looked like I just attempted suicide =P managed to fool A LOT of people.

Played table tennis on Wednesday. We won Beruang in the first match and had to face Seladang in finals. I was playing 1st Single and 2nd Double. I played against Moon in the finals and it was an exciting game. She won the deuce on the first game, and I won 11-9 on the second game, and she won the deuce on the third game. We lost in the 2nd Single and 1st Double. Had softball training after school which was quite nice.

Played softball on Thursday. It was fun, but we lost in the first game. We lost to Beruang. We were really disappointed but at least we won Helang for the 3rd place. The winning point was score by Jiha, where she caught the ball and the whole Helang team was out. Navian belanja-ed us drinks after that.

Played frisbee on Friday. Was against Helang in the first game but we lost. We had to face Seladangs for 3rd place and I get to play against Su and Amandy. HAHAH it was the funniest game. Amanda was like "CHENG I BLOCK YOU" and I said "I don't let you block" and ran away. We won them fair and square. It was a nice match and we were hugging after the game. We cheered for Helang in the finals. All three houses supported Helang and not Beruang. After the game, when it's almost 3.30pm, everyone splashed water around and I was splashed by Farah. I was just passing by and she just splashed water on me. Water fight =P got my whole body wet. Hugged a lot of people just to make them wet too =)

When I got home on Friday, I found out that I'm actually playing chess on Saturday. Ish. So, Saturday I had to wear formal attired to go to school and play chess. I got 2 checkmates, once against Helang and Beruang. It was a draw between me and Yannie. Got bronze for the game.

I got super darker this GC. I love it and honestly I became friends with a lot of people =) Sports ftw.

My birthday

1st of March 1994. The day someone awesome was born.

FYI, I'm talking about ME, not Justin Bieber. I found out that I just happen to be born on the same day as Justin Bieber. *shocking*

Anyways.

I won't say this is the BEST BIRTHDAY EVER, although it is, but I feel that it has no point saying this. Every year I quote the same thing. So I'll just say, it is ONE OF THE BEST BIRTHDAY EVER.

Seriously.

28th February, I had lunch in KFC with my ex-schoolmates. Ying Fang, Mindy, Yi Pei, Alex, Qiang, Chong Yann, Baby, Hiap Shang, Xiang Hui, Ah Blur, Yuen Sum, Boon, Wen Chung, Wuan Di, Sue Yee, Chee Keen, Yeung Ang came for the lunch/small party. It was funny looking at a bunch of SEVENTEEN YEAR OLD boys playing on the playground. I received a card, with all of 5H's student's signature on it, and I LOVE it. I also received a couple of presents from Mindy and Ying Fang and Yi Pei. The cake was nice too, but I didn't get to eat it. Funny, right? xD We had lunch for FIVE hours, and within the FIVE hours, we were talking about scenarios and incidents that happened since form 1. Oh, I love them so darn much. Thank you guys for everything.

1st March, the Official day. Received a lot of birthday wishes, and few of my friends were repeating and I appreciate it. Went to school early in the morning with the van and Jiaying remembered my birthday! Was really surprised. After that went to class, and I was rushing Chemistry notes. Suddenly the whole class started singing Happy Birthday to me, Wei Kei's idea. I had totally NO IDEA. I was so touched by it. WMD was that day and I saw BOTOX FACE =D Thank you BOTOX FACE XIN LI for the silly bands =D They're gonna be my good luck bans now. Lunch time, something fishy happened. Suwei was suddenly forcing me down to the canteen, saying she was unusually HUNGRY that day. Apparently, they had a surprise for me. There was cake and a present. A WONDERFUL present, I might add. The cake was Tiramisu, which was quite delicious. The present, oh my goodness. Suwei and Amandy had almost everyone I knew in form 5 to write down birthday wishes to me on a piece of small card and stalked my facebook for my photos then printed them out. They put everything in a box and it was a Birthday Memory box. I almost cried. This, was the first time, my birthday was so given attention. I am seriously touched. I didn't read the cards in school cause I WILL cry out. So I read them in the van, where almost everyone is asleep, 'cept for Jiaying. Was reading and reading, suddenly saw an unexpected wish. Oh My God, the troubles Suwei, Amandy and Vincy went through to get THAT wish for me. My love for them is multiplied by 100 now.

Thank you everyone for the wish, thank you SMKBBSP friends for treating me as part of the family although I left, and thank you Suwei and Amandy and Wei Kei for the awesome surprise.

All my love to you =D

Swimming Gala '11

Again, my first and last swimming gala in Cempaka.

I didn't attend last year because of Saxon's Chinese New Year Concert. So, this year, I had to attend the swimming gala to know what it's like.

I missed out the registration form for the school transport to CILC. I had to make mom and dad fetch me all the way to Sepang. Turns out that our car was a lot faster than the school bus even though we left later than them. I did cheer for Harimau, but I also did went to Seladang's corner to hang out with Su and Amandy and Moon and Vincy. LOL it was super fun there. Gabriel was there to pose and joke around with us. We kept perasan-ing about how hot we are. Ga Luoh was there, too. We also went around looking for people we met in CVIC and BATB to take photos with them. I managed to find Jazmyn, my Moo Luck and Justin. Missed them so much. Saw Emma and Beatrice and Amanda there, too. I bought new nerd glasses, which were made of glow sticks. Ga Luoh took my glasses and acted like a nerd, which he did very SUCCESSFULLY, but not as successful as Vincy. They were like "I-I-I didn't d-do my c-c-chemist-t-try ho-o-omework" xD

I bought a lot of useless stuffs actually. Wanted to find Vincy's "prey" but we failed. Poor Vincy. I took Moon's place in the school bus home after the event ended.

I had fun. Loads of fun =)

P.S. : Harimau got 2nd in Swimming Gala. Seladang was 1st and Beruang 3rd and finally Helang.

CVIC '11

CVIC '11. AWESOME!

It's the last school production that I can join. This is my first and last CVIC and last year was my first and last CBOP.

Although we don't have the full ass family here, I still feel the Orchestra Love. We have a new trend this time, BOTOX FACE Cx. And instead of Annoying Orange, we have Yeng Kerng doing the Beatbox this time.

Went to school at around 10am and goofed around backstage with Vincent and Jun Ho and Stephanie. We had a small "Backstage Musicals : The Stairs" which was totally epic. As usual, soundcheck wasted a lot of our time. After a short practice ourselves and with the vocal ensemble, we went for lunch. Xin Li and I created a new retard run. We RUN from the hall to the office, and then SLOW DOWN just right in front of the office and act all innocent, and RUN again after we walk pass the office. I love my retard partner. After lunch I went back and continued my CONTOH KARANGAN. It's endless, I tell you. After lunch we did rehearsals again, and a tech run, then a full run. I forgot which "run" did Dato' came in. 4.30pm was our free time. Changed and went to CPAC to play COD!! But in the end, Vincent and Beatrice stole my Mac and I didnt get a chance to have a noob match with Xin Li. We had a little of Dominos, thanks to Mee Hun who bought it, but there were too many people to share with. Dinner was funny, with Kevin and Xin Li and Andrew and Li Jin to talk about their Bio teacher and Emma about her Maths teacher. After dinner was camwhore moment and COD continues. There was also a sorta JAM session in CPAC. Right before the show started, we went MAD in the hall. Was doing BOTOX FACE and laughing out like mad thanks to Vincent. Gabriel was doing his "part time job" as a rocker and Vincy was *as usual* xD Kevin was playing with the mini balloon and got scolded lol. When they opened the door, we orchestra were already on the stage, but we were still goofing around. The show started late with a NO FLASH PHOTOGRAPHY ad which was super duper hilarious. CVIC only lasted about 1 hour plus? Wasn't as long as I expected. Met up with Qi Shaun and Jazmyn after the concert and I was COMPLAINING my lungs out to Qi-Shaun about not being here in orchestra. Said goodbye, hug a few people =) and packed my things and went home.

OH on my way to CPAC to get my violin case, the Prince of Negeri Sembilan was in the lobby and we were scared to go inside. After some time we just went in and took a bow and ran straight up to the room =D. The soloists had to introduce themselves to the Prince, including Andrew and Emma. Must be stressful?

I loved that day. I would do anything to relive that moment. Photos will be posted in Facebook =D

Photos only post =D

School, so far.

Well. I enjoy school the most when you don't have to be in class =)

I'm dead serious.

Okay. I have a draft about school after 3 weeks since school started. I was writing half-way and I was so frustrated I couldn't continue. I kept smashing on my keyboard. I read it just now and I noticed how much I swore in that post. And so, I couldn't post it.

Well, to update this blog, I'll start with what I thought of school during the first few weeks, mildly.

Form 5 is a drag. I've never been so stressed about my academics. I was stressed in Form 2 but that was because of prefect stuffs. This year, it's all about my results and SPM. I hated the fact that I get easily distracted when I'm studying. My mind won't be there. I could be staring at my book and thinking about something far far away. My mood was off last few weeks. I'm sorry if I let out my anger on you guys. Homework was getting harder and increasing and my free time is decreasing.

Well, last year in school, and the Cempaka Voices In Concert is the last school performance I can join. I want to join production this year but NOOOOOO I have to study. So, this is my FIRST and LAST time to join this CVIC.




What can I say? It's just as fun as production, no kidding. If the rest of the asses were here, the ones from Damansara and the ONE from SRI GARDEN (yes you, LIAND), it would be a TOTAL BLAST. I miss the ass family. Orchestra's nice, but it's boring when we have to do sound check. Sitting beside me is Yeng Kerng, AGAIN. I need Qi-Shaun so badly. He's the only one who can control Yeng Kerng from telling bad jokes. This time, he's beat boxing. Oh Mai Gawd. Yeng Kerng.

Oh yeah. This time there are more people from my form to join =) Vincy joined the vocals and Hao Zhi and Jun Ho joined the band. At least I have people to skip classes with me. It's nice having them around and we're rushing our 8 contoh karangans together =D

Tomorrow's the concert and last rehearsal. After that, no more skipping classes with the excuse "orchestra". No more noobing around with my noob partner XIN LEEEEE. Gotta live the moment. Gonna snap pictures wherever I go.


BTW. Vincent fell down today =D and shouted MY ASS in the hall =D NICEEE =D
