Goodbye No.9, Hello 10!!!

single digit to double digits now... awesome eih... signifies we are all mature people now... do you realise it has been a decade since the new millenium?? do you guys and girls even realise that we are living in the year that begins with a 2?? but who cares now right?? do you all still remember how proud we were or how big the celebrations were when we were welcoming the year 2000?? everything sold, gifts and whatnots, reads 2000... but ask anybody on the streets now and see whether they care... lolz...

wow... it has been a year already... honestly it seems only yesterday i was typing out my New Year's resolutions... this year, 2009, has been much of a change to me... i am not copying you Za... lolz... but its true... change has fallen upon me... starting with the decision to leave Penang, my home, to further my studies in KL... it was different... it was insightful... it was eye opening... for the first time in my life, i had to look out for myself... staying alone without family... dealing with things i dont usually deal with... bills and whatnots... getting thrown to a place i have no familiarization with... isolated...

thrown into a uni where i know NO one at all... it was scary and horrifying... i can swear i was afraid... afraid i would be outcasted... not being able to fit in... but thank God that wasnt the case... the first sem was quite lonely for me... first few weeks of uni was terrifying... there were 250 students in a lecture theater... i would be the one sitting in the corner... emo-ing if i may say... lolz... then i got to know a few people which have now become my close friends in uni... you know who you are... lolz... second sem was more fun for me... it was more playing and futsal... and yumcha sessions... more laughter... more snarls... moer insanity... you get the picture... and it finally felt heartwarming... heck, i even miss my uni and my friends now... and i actually miss KL... lolz...

besides that, i had to see all my friends leave overseas or outstation for their studies... it wasnt nice to say goodbye... some flew to Aussie, some UK... but i HAVE kept in touch with most of them... of course it is different than talking to them face to face... but we would have to make the best of the internet...

through these changes, i found myself to be more responsible with myself... i know more, i discovered more... and i took note that i complain less when being asked to do something... also, i have learnt that some friends are keepers and some are just not... its sad to see how ones' friends turn out to be different from when they make their first impressions... some just wants to take advantage... well, honestly, i dont care... God is always watching my friends... and people who are good will be blessed...

2009 has its good and bad moments... which year isnt like that??? who in the world has a perfect year?? lolz... but to me, 2009 was a year where much experience is gained... i hope 2010 would also be the same... so i bid you all a very Happy New Year,,, take care... until i see you all... cheers...

New Word

ahhh... my mom heard this word on the radio saying that its the latest word they are going to add in the Oxford Dictionary... i find it is worth to post up this word because most teens and working age group would do this... and so, for all of you to be aware of it, i am giving you all a head start to use this word before anyone starts... the word?? Intexticating... this is how it is pronounced in-text-ti-k-ting... at first, i was like, what the heck kinda word is it... sounds like students like us are in-text referencing some stuff... lolz... the REAL meaning to the word is texting while driving... i can honestly say, i intexticate a LOT!!!! lolz... what about you??

Random Thoughts

i have not much to do nowadays... all i do is eat, watch tv and drama, laptop and sleep... basically my daily ritual... lazy i know... fat i might be I KNOW... dont remind me... well, i was just playing freecell... on the verge to shut down everything and go to bed... until something popped into my mind again... i know this blog is about to be a "random factual thoughts of yours truly" soon enough... but i don care... its a blog... lolz... i wanna say what i think... and i REALLY hope these things makes me realise something when i read back on my older posts and also help my friends realise things they dont realise... hopefully..

back to freecell... freecell is a game where you would have to think before making the next move... if you make the wrong move, you would either be stuck or lose... its something like a business... if you just lose, at least you can start a new game and play again... problem is, if you are stuck, and you cant find whats wrong, you will be annoyed... thats why i said that my biggest regret to change a laptop was because of my freecell stats... few thousand games played... no shit... problem with this game is, you might think of your next move and visualise where your cards will go etc... what if you are not sure??? what if you are on the fence?? 50-50?? are you still going to go on?? give up?? or try??

many people who give talks and whatnots will always ask us to plan... even when we were students, we are advised to plan... theoratically, planning is good.. it gives us the knowledge of knowing what to expect and what to do... but in practical, as everyone knows, planning does not always work... situation changes all the time... even for a business, it changes economically and technologically... planning is not easy... people can change their minds in an instant... dont believe me?? ask the people who planned for the Genting trip for us SAM students last year... lolz... we would know wont we?? one minute i am in, next minute no more... so, planning is not THAT effective... occasionally, we have to just go with the flow... see what happens THEN decide... its like outings with friends... we discussed we wanna watch movie A, then we meet a friend and asks him/her to join us... but he already watched it... what do we do??? change to movie B where everyone is happy...

what i am trying to say is, plans dont always work out the way they are meant to be... i know my marketing sucks but i know that all marketing plans will change when they are applied... yes, it is important to see which move you are going to take... you have to be cautious... i dont blame you but you have to take the first step no matter what... delve into it before you plan any further...

ahhh... feels so good to get it off my chest... lolz... well... i shall see you all soon... give me a call if there is anything... take care and God bless

Very Much Delayed post

this post has been in my mind for like 3 to 4 months ade... but i havent the inspiration to type it out... and i know the inspirator of this post would be glad i FINALLY post this out... lolz...

for all these years, being the eldest among my siblings, i felt that i was the unluckiest one of all... you know, everything oso i will kena and that sort of crapt... and i always wished to be the smallest one... then on one fine day, in Manhattan Fish Market, i was talking to J... he was the youngest among his siblings... so we shared thoughts... our thinkings differ in this matter... he said being eldest is better... and i was wondering why... cause i know Eugene is the same as me... we get bullied like crapt by our younger siblings... so i asked why... the naswer is simple, straight to the point and stunned me... you can learn things from being the eldest than being the youngest... Gene its time to take note... lolz... we have a better sense of responsiblity with our siblings... that one reason is good enough... lolz... so Gene dont fret k... hahahahahahahahaha...

PS i swear there were many other reasons but i forgot.. lolz...
