strutting down the memory aisle

While searching for some old documents, I found some really stupid and childish yet funny stuff. It dropped out from one of my form one note book. And the funny part was, I still keep it in an envelope. There was I think about 10 or more pieces of such "invitation card" to my "wedding".
Look at all the things they write!!!




The person who wrote this includes err....I think is some guy and some gals. CH if you are reading this...REMEMBER??!!!

Do you even remember all the stuff you did when you were small?? This "incident" really slipped my mind until I found that envelope. Imagine what was my reaction that time....I honestly forgot but I remembered who wrote in some of the other invitation card.

OK, today I'm suppose to go for my ballet rehearsal like usual but we are given 1 day off each month so here I am resting. And I am really thankful that today I got to rest. Because my toes hurt like its gonna drop out any moment!! I recently bought a new pointe shoe because my previous pair id soft and this production requires pointe shoes that are not shinning. Thus I bought a new canvas cloth pointe shoe. Anyway, after wearing for 1 and half hour class, my toes were numb. My class is from 1pm to 2.30pm. Then my rehearsals starts at 4pm till 7pm.

Yes, in that 3 hours of rehearsals, my toes were officially numb and pain. It was so painful till my whole feet was shaking!! When I went home, my both big toes were having their own heart beat. After painfully followed my parents out for dinner, I went home and soaked my both feet into a pail of hot steamy water. I feel the burning heat of the water than my toes. After soaking, I wore a pair of think soaks and felt way better. Maybe because I was sitting down (and completing my bio, Yes bio papers MJ...bluek) and listening to jay's new songs. Its really relaxing.

Ok, not gonna blog too long, gotta finish up some stuff. Click the pics to enlarge it to read what they wrote. Lol....DON LAUGH TOO HARD!!!!

EXAM RESULT

Well, sad to announce but my sister only managed to grab 2 As. I got to know only when mother called to ask me to get my own dinner. My mother's version of story ~~

They went to D'Fortune (at Menjalara) to have some western food for dinner and left me in hunger. Like usual, sis was complaining and blaming her teachers for not teaching well, friends always disturb her and her list goes on and on and on....then after ordering their food, she continued with her blaming act then suddenly burst out crying, She was so sad because she actually expected herself to get 5 As.

So sad and pitiful when I heard the story. My mother told me in the car when fetched me home from work. I can't imagine that scene, that moment of her crying. She cried as in `WAH~~~` like a baby or just tears flowing down her cheeks or what?? Because I always tell my sister never to cry over silly things and maybe well, thats why I can't imagine her crying. Anyway, when I reached home, she was like usual sitting in front of the television watching the Korean drama on NTV7. I went in my room, put my bag down and joined them. Only then she told me " Jie, I only got 2 As". I said~ ya I know. Then we just kept watching the drama silently. After a while only she started her "scene" again----there that stupid xxx teacher lor, donno how to teach....that stupid xx always talk in class so noisy....etc...

Do you remember how was your result released? I remembered very clearly. It was in the afternoon, I went to school early like usual and went to my classroom. We standard 6 students have our own classroom and was not sharing with the other morning session students. When I reached my classroom, it was empty (duh, I said early ma) but a few bags was around. So I sat down and open the cupboard (I had the key because I was the monitor), took out some books to return back to my classmates...

Suddenly, a few of the bag owners came back and when they saw me they got excited. Honestly, I was not excited at all and I think I sort of forgot that day was result day. Anyway, they were talking too fast and I didn't bother to follow or catch whatever they were talking about until I caught my name in between of their conversation. I asked them to slow down and what they replied was" faster go to the office, everyone is there!!!"

Off I ran and reached the office which was already full with parents and students not forgetting teachers and staffs. I was quite famous then because I was the unique one in school--a Chinese who can speak better in English and Malay and thus the office is like my second classroom because the teachers like to ask me to go to the staffroom or office to do this and that. Anyway, when the teachers and staffs saw me, they quickly look through the long list of fax paper that was still in the process of printing out the results. At that moment, I can actually hear my heart pounding in my chest. I WAS SO SCARED, NERVOUS and EXCITED at the same time.

Out of the blue, a cold hands grabbed my shoulders and I knew it was my best friend. She was with her mother, and she looked pale too. "HWEI JENE....NG HWEI JENE.....WHERE ARE YOU??!!" shouted one of the office staff lady, Puan Amin. I was so scared till I couldn't make a sound. My best friend's mother answered for me instead and the next thing I heard in spite of the loud noises was~ TUJUH A!!! Yup, a solid 7 As!!! Straight As!! I was OMG!!! Then her mother asked about my best friends result because her name was close to mine and Pn.Amin's reply was~~ TUJUH A JUGAK!!!

3 of us just ran down from the office and when I turned to my best friend, she was crying!! There were tears in her eyes and she was soo happy!!! Funny part was her mother was holding her fist up and telling every tom, dick and harry that her daughter got full As!!! It was so touching and happy and that moment was indescribable. The next thing that happened was well, like usual, she called her father, brother and all the aunts that was related to her while I stood aside and enjoyed my moment of success (alone).

When I was standard 6, my mother and father was working. I went home with school bus. I called my parents only when I reached home and the conversation between my mother and I was~~

me-------ma, I didn't get any a.....
Mother---really ah?? hahaha.... never mind, u tried your best already
me-------(silent) No la, I actually got 7As
mother---U sure ah? don lie lar...
me--------..........really lar
mother----hahahaa...is it? good lar

Yup, my mother always see me as someone who is stupid. Yes, S.T.U.P.I.D. or D.U.M.B. She well, always say I'm a slow learner and bla bla bla thats why she was shocked that I got a better result than my brother (he got 3As ONLY). Only after my PMR only she started to realise I'm not smart but hardworking. Yes, still stupid but hardworking. Sad?? Nah, it's my motivation to study hard and get a better result.

Few days back, I was talking to Jac about failing our papers. It was after our small Mechanics test that is held every Tuesday. I actually started to fail papers in this semester (Mechanics 2). Previously my worst paper in all my studying life was Chemistry in form 4 during our Mid Year Exam. I was clueless about Chemistry and guess what I got for my exam? 41!! Yes, a forty one. 2 more marks to fail. But thanks to friends who lend me their tuition notes, I did better. I DO NOT TAKE PHYSICS FOR A REASON!!!!! And thats why I do not like Mechanics, its mostly about Physics!!! Curious about my Physic result in secondary school?? Form 4 mid year and finals and form 5 mid year result was 56,57, and 58. Yes, a graduate 1 mark increase in each paper but thank goodness I went to tuition and scored an A1 for SPM mock.

I honestly never believed in tuition. I actually looked down on people who wasted their parent's money on tuition and get results worse than me. I hare people who went to those tuition centers that give tips on mock exam. I really really despise them!!! Especially during mock papers, they just rely on those tips and only studied those parts and sit for the papers. I was really really very happy when the result was released because those who studied according to the tips did very very badly because the teachers changed the questions last minute. Hip Hip Hooray!!!

hahaha, ya, I'm being mean. I'm sorry for not updating for the past week because my bro sprained his feet and has been hogging the computer.
To compensate back, let me show you the slave princess's rehearsals pics. It is private and confidential ya. AND DO NOT LAUGH AT ME!!!

long long long post

Please be warned that this post will be very long. Maybe I'll consider to cut short your pain....

Why haven't I been online lately?? From my previous post, you know I went to stay at a hotel. I now know the hotel's name. Its PNB Darby. Anyway, went back and stayed on Saturday night. I wanted to you know, repeat what I wanted with Astro but I don't know why, by 2am I fell asleep in front of the television with Astro accompanying me. To be exact, it was AXN channel. You see, the channels that hotel offer is kinda limited. There's only AXN, Astro Ria, Starworld, HBO, Disney channel, 4 different types of Vision Four. a Japanese channel, an Arabic channel, ESPN and the usual channels in normal television channels.

Woke up on Sunday morning, went for breakfast and ASTRO!!! Watched till 12pm, then sat train back to Kepong for my friend to fetch me for rehearsal. While walking back to my house, I kicked a small branched and my big toe was PAINFUL!! But I ignored it after a small aaoo...But after a few more steps, I felt my big toe was kinda sticking mt slipper. When I look down, a big pool of blood was in my slipper near my big toe. I have no other choice but to ignore the sticky feeling and continue walking. When I reached home, I was greeted by my own faithful loyal dogie. Then only it dawn into me that Spritz might be interested in my blood then he'll become carnivorous then he might eat me up!! But luckily, he was just jumping up and down and was oblivious to my cut because he was alone for the night and the sight of me made him very very happy.

Later at 7pm, reached home and bath then walked to train station again. I got to sit train from Kepong to kl sentral then change to LRT to Ampang part. The whole journey took me about 35 minute. I can bear the distance and time but not the pang of hunger that was consuming my energy. Moreover, you know the KTM's punctuality plus the civilisation of the passengers on board. Anyway, I think I stopped at McD for dinner (YAHOO!!!!). And well, you can guess my schedule after that.

Monday morning, my dad sent me to college and was late for 5 minutes (you know what's the reason...*roll eyes). Later after the whole afternoon past and after my work, I asked my teacher to sent me to the train station. A last minute plan, we will stay at the hotel for the last night. When I reached the train station, it was 10.15pm. For those of you who knows the short cut (passing by the bluish green pipe to the back lane), yes it was creepy. My ballet teacher was like~You sure this is the place?? So I know she'll be very worried (esp what happened at my worked places) so I sent her a sms to let her chill. Thanks to Spritz god dad, accompanying me throughout the whole time. Ya, I reached the station by 10.15pm, and the board where they write the train's arrival time was not showing any Seremban sign. So I waited and waited till 2 Rawang trains passed. Then only did it appear and guess what, the Seremban train will be arriving by 10.55pm!!

Waiting there was a pain in my gut because while waiting for the train I sat beside a gal and that gal suddenly from no where took out 2 steamy hot aromatic delicious pau!! I haven had my dinner and this is the temptation I get and from a train station where the only stuff I can put in my mouth is coke. Anyway, I decided to feel full by absorbing all the aromatic smell I can get from those steamy hot Char Siu pau. Waited and waited and the train was really testing my patience. 10.55pm came and went. I was starting to doubt if there will be a train to Seremban and so lucky my hand phone was low in battery. Alas, the train only arrived at 11.10pm. Board and waited (again) as it got stuck in between of 2 stations. I started to feel worried and start asking~ what if there's no more train to Ampang park??!!

After more patience wasted on the train's effort to take mr to my destination, I missed the LRT by few seconds. I heard the train while climbing the stairs, so I decided to run and when I reached the top the train's door close on me and left me looking at the train in Spritzer's trademark eyes. Thank goodness the next train was 5 minutes later. Reached Ampang Park by 11.55pm and my mom was no where to be seen so I decided to walked to the hotel alone (don scold me...I was tired and wanna reach the hotel asap). It was dark no doubt but my instinct told me to continue walking and nothing will happen. So I went walking and holding my Hp hoping it won't die off on me.

Bumped into mom at the lobby even though I've smsed her that I have 1 more stop to reached Ampang Park. Well, your guess is as close as mine, my Mother and her time management right? Anyway, went up to the room and to my 'surprise'. there was no food around. Room service? I'm not that rich you know? Neither are my parents too. So I went to bed with Astro in front of me (There's one tv in front of my bed) showing me food from god knows where which make me switch channel and watched Small Guy. Sick show and made me doze off....zzzzz.....

Woke up at 8am, went to eat the last breakfast I'll get in this hotel. Ate a lot, went to college and I was not worried if I'll end up late because my class starts at 10am. So we took our time consuming all the fats available and became fat. Later at 12pm, my class ended. So I went to the bus stop to wait for my mother. I have no idea why I was so tired because while waiting I was actually fighting from dozing off (maybe too tired from waiting and my patience juice ran out). Anyway, my dear Mother came at....1.30pm and ya, my hp was dead by the time I woke up in the morning and when I reached home, I found out that my watch was dead too.....what a day eh....

On Saturday before we went to the hotel again, my dear beloved best friend who came back from US for holiday bought me some souvenir and the birthday gift she told me on my birthday. Apparently, she went and order something from somewhere just for me. My first thought was from Taiwan and it got to do with Jay and true enough she brought a Jay's DVD~~Secret which has something special at the front cover and there was this limited version of music box that when you turn the knob, Jay's song entitled Secret can be heard. From Us, she bought me a pen and phone book from Disney land and did a name chain for me....she also told me stories and well, she did her job for letting m,e know every detail about US, She was at San Francisco and California. She went to Hollywood too. Asked her about Hollywood and all she told me was~~ A WASTE OF TIME...Anyway, Jayne came back with rashes and skin problem because the wind there was dry.

Here are the pictures of the things a got.....^^

outing at hotel...

On Thursday after working, I reached home at about 10.30pm. My lady boss/ ballet teacher fetched me home. When I open the house door mom said we will be going to Hotel xxx for a night. Apparently Dad has a free room for us. So off I went bathing and packed for the night and for next day's class (not forgetting my clothes for college).

Passed by Istana Budaya, yup, that will be the place I'm gonna perform on 30th Nov, 1st and 2nd Dec. It was wow...especially the structure of the building. At first I thought I was at Dataran Merdeka because mother said I WILL be performing here and I asked WILL?? I thought I have been performing here since 2001?? Then only I saw Istana Budaya (which at first glance looked like the National Mosque before Dataran). We reached the hotel and beside the hotel was Porches!!!! The cars on display was...WOW!! Anyway, I was not very happy because I did not study the whole day even though I had no class. Why?? Because I woke up late, went to take blood test for Hepatitis B, then went to IMU to check out some things. After speaking to the administrator, I kinda got afraid of studying Medicine because of financial (I need at least 500k!!) problem and I'm afraid I will freak out during clinical training in the ward.

Anyway, back to the hotel. The hotel I imagine was small and kinda like First World(Genting) but when my dad opened the room door, Walao!! that room was like as big as an apartment!! There was kitchen, 2 bathrooms, 2 rooms and 2 televisions, living room and dining table. I decided to stay at the living room in front of the television because...ASTRO!!! For those who did not know, I do not have ASTRO at home so I practically sat in front of the Tv and watched....til 6am. YUP, I did not sleep and watched the whole night....woohoo....now feeling a little guilty(boohoo..)

I have Biology class in the morning (8am) and we have free breakfast. I thought my mother will fetch me to college then stay at hotel til 12pm with my sis but NOOO...all 3 of us will be going off TOGETHER. So I quickly went to my sis and shouted:" MIN!!! WAKE UP!!! I'M LATE!!!!" hahahaha...she practically jumped out and ran to the bathroom...LOL (yup, bad sis..livinf up to my name).

We went for breakfast by 7am. Okay, I thought we can spend half and hour here then fly to college because mother said its quite near. Half way enjoying the cereals (typical breakfast buffet), my dad came and said he'll follow us, asking my mother to drop him at KLCC. I was like WHAT THE!! YOU KNOW WHAT TIME IS IT?? WHICH PART OF 8AM CLASS DO YOU NOT UNDERSTAND?? Of course all these was in my head not my mouth. My dad slowly took his breakfast and had 4 servings. I was fuming, boiling, shouting, yelling in me....

By the time it was 7.50am, I reminded him nicely that I have class at 8am. You know what did he reply?? He said~then why are you here? Some more wake up so late. Go take the car lar, I'm waiting for you guys lar...AND WHILE SAYING THAT HE WAS STANDING UP TO TAKE A CUP OF COFFEE!!!!!!! Argh!! So angry!! So I stood up, took my bags and stormed to the lobby's lift to the car park. Mother and sis understood me thus they followed suit.

Thank god by the time I reached college, it was 8.10am. Late for 10 minutes. But honestly I hate to be late and hate people to be late. Maybe because of my band life's influence, PUNCTUAL OR GET DOWN AND DO 50 PUSH-UPS...
Reminded me the 1st time I was late for practice(thanks to mother). When I went to the hall where the other band members were marching, all the band seniors and juniors just stared at me and no one asked me to do that 50 push-ups. I wonder why and it was because I looked like I'll burst into tears anytime....lol (Managed to ask the Drum major why I was not punished after practice).

Yup, that's it. After my mother left her job and became the "driver", she always manage to make us late somehow. Everytime when you ask if she can fetch us out, she'll say yes and go into the bathroom to shower. And her shower takes at least 10 minutes, so, ya, L.A.T.E!!!!!!!!
Hopefully, I will not be like her (praying hard...come pray with me). Gotta be 12pm, gotta rush to main block with Jac...hmm, wonder why she haven call me.....For your info, I'm in the college's library

One of my principle in life:

Be early or never late

JUST SHUT UP!!!

Before I get to the story, let me inform the world that KARAM IS BACKKKKK!!!!! His blood pressure is back to normal (120) and no more (180). Yeah, but he clearly lost a lot of weight (12 kg to be exact). When he stood up, he hunched a bit and looked fragile. Glad he's back after missing in action for 3 weeks.

Yup, Shut Up!! I arrived for chemistry class then later only he arrived. Like usual, everybody talked nonsense, then he approached me to ask for my worksheets so that he can compare his answers with mine. Before I lend him, I asked~Why? I don't want to lend you~jokingly. He replied:" I FINISH ALREADY LAR. YOH~~~HAHAHAHA" So I passed the worksheet to him and continue with my stuff. Maybe my tone came out all wrong....

Recalled yesterday when Ms.Ng finished the chapter, I also finished my worksheet because I did some before she taught (finished those that I can figure out myself) then I asked a few question which I still don't understand. He heard me and asked in his OH-SO-EVER-LOUD voice~" YOH...YOU FINISHED THE WORKSHEET ALREADY AH!! WHY YOU SO FAST??i CAN'T CATCH UP WITH YOU LAR!!" It just slipped my tongue and I replied~ then don't catch up lar~
What I meant was why you wanna catch up with me and compare our speed? Finish the worksheet in your own pace so that you know and understand what you are doing. When Ms. Ng heard my reply, she just laughed (you never know what's behind her laughters because she told us before that sometimes when she is laughing, deep down inside her heart, she is boiling...ooo)

Ms. Ng started the lesson with Unit 5.5 C and we were learning about margarine. Margarine is made out of unsaturated lipids (contains double bonds and usually from plants)which is converted to saturated lipids by reacting with hydrogen with platinum catalyst at room temperature. Anyway, HE got so hyped up that he started to tell the whole class about something while Ms. Ng was teaching and explaining in front. I was having difficulties catching what Ms.Ng was teaching even though I was sitting just in front of her. Thanks to his OH-SO-EVER-LOUD voice overpowering Ms.Ng's attempt in increasing her voice level, he started to get on my nerves and I just said~shhh but at the same time Ivan who was sitting behind me also said SHHH louder.

Unfortunately, his OH-SO-EVER-LOUD voice just continue to BOOM on till the extend that Ms.Ng stopped explaining and decided to flip her notes. Then only his big head + big mouth shut up!! Only then did Ms.Ng continued, But she added~ "since you guys are not listening, i've skipped a lot of parts and explanation. You notice i'm going faster and faster? So that you need to QUIET DOWN to catch what I'm talking about." Now, here goes again..Ms.Ng getting upset with our class AGAIN!! Few times earlier was because few was playing in class, then because we paid more attention on Further Maths, then because many of us did our worksheet badly, then because SOME people just could not shut up during practicals (you know who's the culprit??) and now...again..haiz...

Hello?? You know your voice is loud, so silent la!! Shut your mouth and talk at proper times. They said BMW= big mouth woman. I dubbed you BMM=big mouth man!! Gosh you just shut up and no one will call you a deaf or dumb and who cares about your so interesting story. Will your this excellent story help us (or you) in getting that A in exam?? Because of you our whole class didn't get to listen what Ms.Ng was teaching. After Mechanics, I talked to Golok and Victor, even they were kinda annoyed. Ish!!

After Ms.Ng finished the chapter, we got back our practical book which the practical on Monday was conducted as mock exam. He asked me how much did I get and after what happened in my primary school, I developed phobia in revealing my results, so I said don't know and at that instants his facial expression changed and I kinda guessed he wanna compare our marks and maybe well, show off a bit. So he asked whether I got above 40 or below 40 instead. When I said above, he paused then clapped his hands and said good (I know he got 41...lol). FAKER!!!! Hmm, on 2nd thought, is it me or am I too sensitive?? hmm....

I wonder if my short temper has returned and thus I get angry so easily? Nope, it's not pms. Do you know that because of his request I went online and wasted time typing my work sheet's answers + explaining to him? I'm ok with going online and helping him but what I'm not ok with is explaining the o.b.v.i.o.u.s to him. This is what annoys me. You want to compare answers, ok I don't mind. I don't even mind you using my time teaching and typing all the answers for the 20 pages worksheets. But I DO MIND if you ask me to repeat what can be found in the notes and then when I give you the answers you go~~" OOOOO, aiyoh I so stupid, all can be found in notes right? Eh, can give me the page no?" Shit you lar!! Gosh, I hate people like this, LAZY!!

Was reading Jac's post when I totally agree when she said that he's a suck up!! I also notice that whatever jokes the lecturer crack whether its funny or lame or totally not funny, he'll go~~" WAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAAHHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAhee eh" Honest, you can always expect his laughter when the lecturer says something that was meant to be a joke. And sometimes you can kinda know that he faked that laughter.
Anyway, while reading Jac's post I suddenly remembered what was the 1st official conversation and how we 1st cliqued. Lol...Jac, lets just remember and keep it in our heart >.<

and ya, dear Han Liang, happy birthday!! love you!! miss you!! muakz <3
