I don't get it. Lately, I've been feeling real shy whenever I'm around this certain someone. Besides shyness, I feel fear as well. Shyness and fear. That's pretty nor-
Ninja:That's not normal at all. Julian:Don't interrupt me dammit!
Ok, it's not that normal but still, she scares the crap out of me.
Ninja:Chicken-wuss. Julian:Yea, whatever.
Been busy with the relationship conference and the final session's gonna be on tomorrow. So far it's been pretty interesting and I've learnt a lot of new stuff. But I won't be sharing about it now. Not today.
Watched a documentary at Physical Geography lecture today. It was amazing. Just watching it makes me feel smaller than I already am. It reminded me of how powerful and artistic God is. What geologists believe took millions of years to form, God created within a week.
The documentary's called EARTH: The Power of the Planet.
Now I feel like going to Iceland. Hot springs! Hot springs!
The weather's been raining and raining all week. So much for hot spring. Gloomy for us city kids but good for the farmers. Well look at the bright-side.
I had a great time on Saturday night helping out at the Juwita concert. Since we ran out of tickets, we resorted to tearing creating more tickets out of the few flyers we had. After realization of how dodgy it looked, we just decided to stamp the audiences' hands. Funny how Mr. Loo was generating graphs, diagrams and statistical data using Excel for his phone usage errr i mean ticket sales. Yes, ticket sales. He was playing some online game too.
Opening for Singapore-Indonesian Malaysia based singer/songwriter, Juwita was Singapore-New Zealander Sydney based singer/songwriter, Alarice Thio. (That's just confusing.) Accompanying them was a 37-piece orchestra conducted by Zach Tay, "Orchestre Nouveau".
Alarice Thio
Didn't get the chance to see Alarice perform that night but managed to catch her performing an acoustic set the night before together with Chris, Ann and Juwita at Cafe Crema. Juwita and Alarice are both amazing singers. (So are Chris and Ann.) Also had the opportunity to hear Juwita's story in church on Sunday. Makes me feel proud to be Malaysian.
I have a thing for orchestras. I love listening to orchestral music. Must have been from all the videogames I've played eg. Final Fantasy, Kingdom Hearts, Metal Gear Solid. To pay $15 to watch Juwita perform with Orchestre Nouveau was totally worthy it. Which reminds me.
London Philharmonic Orchestra
is coming to Australia next month! Only problem is the tickets don't come cheap. One ticket can buy you 70 bowls of kolo mee. And that's before converting it to Malaysian dollars, 200 bowls of kolo mee. BUT, that's only if you want the best seat in the house. The ticket prices range from $240.50 to $25.
"The London Philharmonic Orchestra has long been recognised as one of the best ensembles in the world, an assertion borne out by continued acclaim from audiences and critics alike."
As much as I want to go, I probably won't. Lately, I've been caught up into too many events and activities. I should slow down and save some money while I'm at it. Relationship Conference's on this week and exam timetable's comes out today. Joy.
Since, everyone else is on holidays, it feels like I'm on holidays too. Not good. Time to be productive.
Goodnight.
~ God put our eyes in the front so that we will look forward ~
For the past week, I've been working on this short video competition. This competition was organized by my course program and it requires us to make a short video which promotes our area of study. In my case, Geomatics. If you're wondering what the *beep* Geomatics is, don't worry. That makes two of us.
Refer to one of my earlier post to find out what Geomatics is. Click for the link here.
Of course I wouldn't be interested in entering such a competition unless the prizes are yummy and well worth the effort. And boy are the prizes yummy.
3rd Prize - 4 Hoyts Movie Tickets Not bad. There are a few good movies coming out and I'm yet to watch "UP".
2nd Prize - Digital Camera (10MP) Okay. This would just be an upgrade for the camera I have now. Not something I really need but hey.
1st Prize. Now this is the reason I entered this competition. You ready?
1st Prize is a....
CAMCORDER!!
Gahhhhhh! A freakin' camcorder and all you have to do is submit a freakin' video. A freakin' FREE CAMCORDER!! Ahhhhhh I never knew I could want something, besides a PS3, so bad. Haa...okay, think I've calmed down a bit. *clears throat*
So why do I want a camcorder so bad? I think it all started when I was reading this manga, called Sket Dance (Don't judge me! and no, it's not a manga about making videos or some sort of magical camcorder....that's just corny).
Sket Dance is about a trio of high-schoolers who helps people out as part of their club activity. How the club came about is a vital part of the story so I won't spoil it for you guys. Technically, each of the member have some sort of tear-jerking, emotional past. And the main character, Bossun, discovered his past through footages his parents took with, you guessed it, a camcorder.
Whoever invented the camcorder is my hero. I'm sure there are times in your life which makes you go, "Mann I wished someone recorded it." Recording it would be a great way of "immortalizing" that day, event, moment etc. Maybe even better than a photo ever could. But that's just my opinion. Some of you would argue that a photo, journal or even a drawing would be better. Than again it would vary depending on the situation.
Just like how this blog serves as a way for me to document events in my life, the camcorder could assist me in taking this a step further. Afterall, there's only so much the grey matter in my head can store. Also, wouldn't it be nice to share the videos you've recorded with your families and friends 20, 50, 80 years from now?
Aha....looks like I'm getting ahead of myself. Let's be reasonable here. What are my chances of winning 1st Prize? Also, how often would I be using it anyways? Afterall, this may just be a temporary craze. Who knows? But we'll see, yea?
This post sounds like a serious soap opera when it's just about a kid entering some video competition. But you'll never know what might come out from all this. Life is full of surprises whether you like it or not.
I'm sure we all have those moments where by we're just busy doing our homework, taking a dump or in my case chopping some garlic, when suddenly *ping!* a thought comes to mind.
This isn't one of those million dollar ideas or random thoughts I usually have(random thoughts) but something quite relevant actually. It was,
"I won't be able to get into a boy/girl relationship unless I am able the put God first."
Now that I look at it, it's seem more like a statement than a thought.....hmmm could it be, could it be. I'm still trying to train my spiritual ears but maybe I'm just schizophrenic. But why while I'm chopping garlic? None can fathom.
So how is this relevant, say you? Next week my church will be running a relationship conference which I've been helping to publicize during the past couple of weeks. Me? A guy who's been single all his life promoting a relationship conference? Hmmm could it be, could it be. Maybe it's like Heroes, where certain events and people are connected. I just might learn a thing or two from this conference.
Since, it's the holidays for most of you guys, don't miss out on this conference! There'll be food, free goodies, attractive singles, a foot massage and disco lights. Okay, I lied. I'm not even sure how this conference's gonna run but I guarantee you it'll be........interesting.
So what have I been up to lately?
Hisense Arena
Went to a Youth Alive event last Saturday. RELIENT K performed! Unfortunately, I didn't manage to any pictures of 'em. Camera battery died on me because I got little too carried away taking pictures of the New Empire.
New Empire
New Empire's vocalist
The Youth Alive band were good, so good that the drummer broke his sticks while playing. The guest pastor who spoke that night was Pastor Preston Centuolo. Really got the crowd going with his wit and humour. If there one thing I'll definitely remember about this event is the song "Don't touch my Jesus music!" by Lecrae. At least that's what I think the song's called.
What I loved about Relient K was their stage performance. Each of the band members were pretty sync with one another. Even their jumps were syncronized and timed perfectly with the music. The xylophone was a nice touch and adds another layer to their music. So glad that they played "Who I Am Hates Who I've Been" and "Be My Escape" cause those are the only two songs I know from them. What made me merrier was when they covered "Tomorrow" by Silverchair! Relient K are known for covering songs during their live performance and that's cool.
Had a great night spending time with friends and catching up with one.
Besides Youth Alive and the relationship conference, I've been working on a project, but I'll save that for a later time.
Juwita Suwito live in Melbourne this Saturday! Before that, Chris and Ann will be performing alongside her and Alarice Thio on Friday at Cafe Crema. It's just one thing after another! This is gonna be fun.
On a totally different note,
I still haz your kitty and no, I want cheezburger flavoured cookies!

With his band at the ready and the crowd cast out by glares from the hovering spotlights he speaks.
Hi, I'm Julian and I’ll be sharing a song and the journey I went through to “birth” this song. Last Easter camp, back when I was in Perth, was the first time God spoke to me. Usually when God speaks to you, you would expect something encouraging or comforting. But it wasn’t. And I’m glad that it wasn’t, cause what God said was true. Back then I was interested in joining the worship team but God said that I wasn’t ready. I wasn’t ready cause my heart wasn’t set right and my only motive for joining the worship team was that I could play the drums. It wasn’t for God but for my own selfish needs. But I only realized this later on.
After the camp I was inspired and it was during this time that I randomly picked up a friend’s guitar and stringed 4 chords together. Back then I only had the melody but not the lyrics. Since I wasn’t able to come up with any lyrics, I just left it as it was. But funny enough, I knew that this would be a Christian song.
In between completing the song, I was looking for acceptance. I was driven to prove to God that I was ready but at the same time I wasn’t sure if I’ll ever be ready. It was as though I was suffering from bipolar disorder. One minute I’ll be, “yea I can do this, just keep practicing and stay in the rhythm”. But the next minute I’ll be “owh, I can’t do this I can’t even play triplets or as good as Guo Jin. I’ll never be ready, know what I mean?” I was too caught up in trying to get God’s approval. And this blinded me.
Friends, you don’t have to fight for God approval. He already has. I realized that this Easter camp. Renewed and inspired once again, I revisited the song I composed last year. This time the words came to me and I managed to get the lyrics done it one sitting.
This song that I’m sharing with you today isn’t merely a song but a yearlong journey. In other words, something very personal to me. This song reflects a sense of hunger for God, proclaims God’s greatness and at the same time talks about how God lifted me up, healed my heart and rescued me from my sins and shames at the time I was just broken, hungry and lost. And I’m glad to say that till today I am able to stand before God unashamed and proud of who I am. The chorus of this song reflects the renewal of my spirit and how this song is a new beginning for me with God as the center.
I feel very convicted to share this song. I believe that this is a very powerful song because this is a song that was given to me by God. So this isn’t my song. So sing it however you like, dance to it, I don’t care this is between you and God. And for those you who are just so hungry, lost or think that your walk with God is going nowhere let me invite you to sing this song with me and let this be your new song to God.
Just because I’m sharing here today doesn’t mean I’ve hit the mark. I’m still struggling, trying to spend more time with God, trusting Him more, reading the bible, to be a genuine nice guy and trying not to get pissed off at my friends for not finishing their food, these little things. But when I chose to follow God he told me that I’ll be in for a wild ride but I’m holding on. Life’s just gonna get harder but God has it covered.
For You Are by Julian, Ann, Si Hua, Leland, Leon, Phil Sept 09
I need you to touch me again, oh Lord I need you more than words can say Come Jesus, make me new once again With your love
To you I will sing new song today For you I will sing at the top of my lungs And I will praise you for all of my days For you are
All powerful, you who created all things So mighty, you hold the world in your hands My saviour, redeemer and friend, Yes you are, Yeshua
To you I will sing new song today For you I will sing at the top of my lungs And I will praise you for all of my days For you are
You lift me up, You healed my heart, You rescued me, from my sins and shame
To you I will sing new song today For you I will sing at the top of my lungs And I will praise you for all of my days For you are Yes you are Lord of All
Hmmm I think I've talked enough so just wanted to put this here as a reminder for me when ever I'm lost and unsure of where I am going. I have so much to give thanks to God for. It's about time I do so!
With holidays over, it's back to the bittersweet life of uni.
Hmmm it's mid-sem break but I'm occupied with loads of stuff, uni and non-uni related. Mainly non-uni stuff, so that's good. Was hoping to rest up and recover from a busy week but I guess I'll be having a productive week. Better than slacking off playing flashgames and watching anime.
Next Sunday, I'll be sharing a song I wrote with the Life* Expedition congregation. I reckon the band got it nailed down. My only worry is singing off-key. That would just spoil everything. I am living prove that drummers can't sing! Or maybe that's just me. But that's not important. What's important is my state of heart and how/what I want this song to communicate to the people. Humble me and empower me.
Also, our dance item will be on that Sunday! Oh, the excitement! Don't worry, I'm sure we'll get it down by then, I hope? Nahh, gotta be positive. We'll definitely get it down by then! Look forward to it and be awe by our prowess! wakakaka
Lately, my emotions been getting the better of me. Totally reminds me of an episode of "Two and a half men" where Charlie snapped after keeping his emotions bottled up for so long. It's been too long since I when into one of my infamous laughing fits that it left me tearing and choking.
Yes, "I choked on my own laughter". literally.
To think that I actually would after using that phrase to express sarcasm for all those years. Oh, the irony. sigh. totally ruin the cool facade I spent years perfecting. Good news is I can't possibly do more to further ruin my image.
Or can I?
Nahh I rather not.
Mann there are still some other stuff I wanna blog about but I guess they're all going into the drafts folder. Hopefully I'll get the chance to clear out that folder during this short break. I've got incomplete posts in there worth weeks and months old it's probably not relevant anymore. I might bring 'em back anyways. Who knows?
I'm sleepy, my ass hurts and I've got work to do.
Time for bed.
~ Selamat Hari Merdeka ke-46, kepada orang Sabah dan Sarawak! ~
Last weekend I spent 40 hours away for home. It wasn't as bad as I thought it would be but I guess having an emergency shelter and a friend for company make things much easier. It was cold and tiring. Nevertheless, an interesting experience. One I wouldn't mind doing again. Next time on the streets. Maybe.
Thanks to those of you who've sponsored me and for those of who haven't (lee, yu and chua) you've got till the end of September! woo~hoo
Yesterday, chris, ann, greg, devon, sarah and myself when to watch Anberlin.
Notice how the ticket says under 18's only? But we still managed to sneaked in. Must have been my good looks heheh =P
Opening for Anberlin were Aussie band, Wherewolves
and The Academy Is...
And finally, the main event.
Anberlin's presence on stage were pretty good. They were energetic, swinging their guitars around and moving much quicker than my camera's shutter speed. Didn't managed to get any better shots but that's ok.
One thing I noticed about all three bands was that all their drummers were smashing the drums like nobody's business. Power mann but not good for the ears.
The highlight of the night was probably when The Academy Is performed "About A Girl" cause that was the only song I was familiar with. It was good that they did cause I was just about to doze off. I found their other songs boring. Anberlin's music was new to me but I enjoyed it and overall, it was a good concert.
And the award for "Best Picture of the Night" goes to
What the heck have I gotten myself into. This weekend is definitely gonna be a real eye-popping, gut-wrenching, hair-pulling, toe-nail-biting experience.
But life is a journey and it's better doing it together. Right?
It's alright. I'm doing this for the kids. We're doing this for the kids!
To those of you who've turned me down, it's not too late to donate!
Preparation: Chicken 1) Boil chicken together with salt and pepper for an hour. 2) Soak chicken in cold water after boiling. Rice 1) Add garlic and ginger to the rice. 2) Use butter to give the rice it's yellow, glossy look.
3) Cook the rice in the chicken soup (excess soup can be served as a side). Serving:
Chicken 1) Dry chicken with paper towel before plating up. 2) Arrange cucumber slices around the plate for a cool touch. 3) Drizzle soy sauce and sesame oil. 4) Top with spring onions before serving.
Rice 1) Mold rice into desired shape using hands or you could use a bowl.
Ahhh it's been a while since I've done a reflective post. To just sit down and reflect upon the past few days and months even. There's always this warm fuzzy feeling I get when I meet up with friends whom I haven't seen or heard from for a long time. Yesterday I had the opportunity to catch up with a friend from Perth.
Charles came over to Melbourne for a work conference and extended his stay over the weekend for a mini-vacation. Exchanging stories and pleasantries over sushi, ramen and sashimi at J Cafe, it was great to see that he's doing fine. Hearing stories about old friends is always good fun. It's also fun(and shocking) to find out who's dating who now. Heard that another friend is getting married by the end of the year too. Seem like Zion's doing fine but I feel kinda bad ditching them for Melbourne. Hope you're not getting too stressed out Jim! It's good that you're faithfully serving but they should seriously cut you some slack. Did you guys seriously do "No Reason To Hide"? That's cra-zy!!
Oh, Perth. I wouldn't mind paying you visit next year. We'll see =)
My 7th month in Melbourne and I'm enjoying every minute of it or at least I'm trying too. It's great how almost everything's within walking distance and that the public transport is more efficient than back home and Perth. Having friends who stays in the same building and down the street make things merrier too. It's as though we're living out "FRIENDS", only that we're uni students, in Melbourne and asians.
Sem2 is looking good so far. Staying on top of uni work and still finding time to squeeze in busking, coffee runs and what other silly adventures with my girl friends. "Having ice-cream in the sun. That's what life should be."
Oh, Spring. I welcome you with open arms.
Expect a much warmer week ahead with a few showers. Everyday's a new day. Everyweek's a new week. It's a fresh new start! Embrace it like freshly printed lecture notes. Warm and fuzzy with the slight scent of printer ink.
Nerd out.

sihua:my struggles- holding hope in the world when i'm not with ppl who give me hope ('christian' friends)
Yea, I know what you mean man. Sometimes the people around us can be so cynical and pessimistic it's just like poison to us. Like I was just talking with ninja:
Julian: Hey, ninja! The weekend's here!! Ninja: Yea. Monday's coming.
Julian: -_-"
What a killjoy.
I think I can relate with you but the question now is, "What am I suppose to do?" Right?
Hmmm if they are the poison, then we shall be the antidote. (haha so chessy)
So basically, as difficult as it may be, just hold on hope.

"my parents fight a lot, but the other day i found them slow dancing in the kitchen. it GMH. "
"I woke up one morning to hear the birds outside my window and my mother cooking breakfast downstairs. I've never cried so much in my entire life. I had been deaf since the age of 8. GMH."
Without a doubt, we live in an ugly world but these little snippets of another person's life reminds us that miracles do exist and that there is hope for this world.
And finally, some questions just to mess with your brain:
Are you part of a Lost Generation?
What is it that GiveYouHope?
Go ahead and post your thoughts here. I would love to hear/read them =)
~ Honestly I do think I am part of a Lost Generation but living in His promise GMH ~
It's quiet. Too quiet. Maybe all the noise around me is drowning you out. The hustle and bustle in my life. I'm just running around aimless everyday. Getting things done day in and day out. And by the time I get home I'll just be soo tired.
Hmmmm I think I'm starting to lose sight of what is important. Not good.
It's quiet. Too quiet. Maybe it's just a matter of time before something happens. But should I just sit around idly and wait for "IT" to happen or should I just get things rolling myself?
You're quiet God. Too quiet. Do you want me to be still? So that you can speak to me? If so, I should make some changes no?
Alright damn it! I'm gonna get desperate!
God, give me strength! Strength to surrender time and everything in your hands. So that I can make the changes. Changes for the better! Train my ears to be able to hear your still small voice! Give me the discipline this week to be still before you and to spend time with you. Be it a minute more, 10 minutes or 30 minutes, create a space where I'll be able to immerse myself in your presence! I thank you God. AMEN!~
Some times God can be so silent I just feel lost. But that's alright. Like how God's the shepherd and we are His sheeps, He will definitely find those of us who are lost.
I feel inspired. God, allow me to seize the week ahead. Let's make this a good one so that by the end of the week when a person ask me, "How're you doing?" Joey Tribbiani style, I'll be able to say with conviction, GOOD!
God. I thank you for people in my life, those who are concern about my spiritual walk with you. Those whom I can count on in trouble times and mentor me in a sense. From these mentoring sessions which I'm undertaking this sem, I pray that it will empower me and encourage spiritual growth.
Btw, busking is awesome even though we only earn like $1-$2 on a regular basis. Guess we're not worth Melbourne citizens' spare change. HA! But it's good fun especially when you meet weirdos interesting people on the streets. For example, the man with funny-money, hippie french ladies, a megaphone wielding "Pink" impersonator, fellow buskers and Take.
Take is this Japanese student Ian and I met while busking and mann he's cool. A fellow musician as well, Take jammed a bit with us showcasing his musical prowess before parting ways. I wasn't expecting any of this when I decided to get a busking license. Who would have thought we would meet so many different people or even make a new friend.
Life sure is full of surprises.
Can't wait for spring to come! It's too cold to busk during winter. Gotta cut Ian and Ann some slack heheh.
Oh, I love how this post is just one massive rojak! Don't you guys?
Guess it reflects my current state of mind.
Wee~ I love writing songs. I wanna write more and more and more!
Jaz ftw!
Breakdance is getting better each week too. Learning more and more difficult power and freeze moves. And have you guys seen the move called the "cockroach"? It's probably the most silliest move you will ever see. It gave me a pretty good laugh when I saw my instructor do it. Hilarious.
Alrighty! Think I've rambled long enough. Time to sleep, wake up and face the week ahead the only way I know how. With enthusiasm, a focused mind, an uncle toby muesli bar and an umbrella. Expect rain during the earlier part of this week.
Introducing the Floonies! The handmade multi-face puppets. Their primary purpose is to make us laugh and remind us not to take life too seriously. The Floonies are creativity toys with which you are able to create many different faces.
(I soo did not copy that off the back of its packaging haha.)
But don't let its looks deceive you! The Floonie is not just a mere toy. After days of research and sleepless nights, I have discovered 5 other uses for the Floonie. Presenting, the fruits of my labour!
Number 1: An arm rest
Number 2: A phone dock
Number 3: A stress ball
Number 4: A friend
and my favourite
Number 5: A monster from Dragon Quest
Btw, due to positive feedback, I've decided to upload my previous video onto Youtube.
I can be so blind most of the time. I'm so blessed yet I take things, people, God and even myself for granted. Never more I say.
God, I thank you for the basic necessities which I have. Clothes to wear, a bed to sleep in, hot water, food and so much more. I thank you for the people in my life especially those whom I'm journeying with right now. They are truly a blessing in my life. God I thank you for who You are. You who holds nothing against me. You who listens to my whining.
You who heal my heart. You who lift me up. You who rescues me from my sins and shame.
And God, I thank you for this life you have given me. Use this life as you will and may it be one which honours you. Allow the holy spirit to work through me so that I may be your salt and light to those around me. Let these not be empty words but words of truth. AMEN!~
I must be pretty brave or lying to pray such a prayer. Let's hope it's the first reason!
I've always enjoyed celebrating other people's birthdays but I've never really enjoyed or even bothered celebrating my own. Yea, I know. What a loner.
This year, however, was an exception.
1st August.
Yup, I just celebrated my 19th birthday and I had a blast of a time!
As simple as it was, I love it! My recipe for a good steamboat party is:
A) The 4cs - cabbage, corn, carrots and chicken stock B) A bunch of misfits friends for company and C) FISH TOFU!!
It's been such long time since I've smiled so much. I mean who wouldn't be happy eating steamboat? FISH TOFU!! Thanks to everyone who were there to celebrate with me and to those who weren't able to but send their wishes, thank you too!
I'm infamous for giving random/unconventional birthday presents to people. This ranges from a coconut to a barbie doll to a sarong to Carlsberg playing cards. This year, I've finally gotten a taste of my own medicine.
A mickey mouse watch.
A floonie. (gonna play around with it later)
and
A teapot + milk tea.
Not as random as mine but close enough. Wasn't expecting any presents, especially not the teapot and milk tea. So thanks heaps!!
What made my day sweeter was that I had not one buttwo birthday cakes!! Woohoo hahaha yes I can get very excited about cakes sometimes. Cakes makes me M.E.R.R.Y.
From now onwards, I'll be looking forward to the 1st of August. I mean hey, that's the day I was brought to life. I'm sure that's reason enough to celebrate.
And how can a birthday party be complete without a group picture
or two
or three.
Soo sorry you missed out wince =( here's a little something just for you.
Thank you my Mcdonald-loving-"Paper Jam Incident"-buddy!
Sick and gastro-infected isn't the best way to start the first week of uni. Can't believe I actually missed a lecture! I don't miss lectures! Haha I can be such a nerd at times. But I'm feeling much better now. So this week's gonna be much better. (I hope)
After such a slow start last week, it's time to get serious!
I've wiped the dust off my desk. I've organized my files. I've sharpened my pencils. I've packed my lunch.
It's amazing how much and how little you can do in 30 days. So what have I been up too (besides the video) this winter break?
Bought my bongos. Got my busking license. Applied for a part-time job. (FAIL) Had Starbucks. Bended some wires. Talked to strangers. Brokedance. Breakdance. and THE LIST goes on.
I'll probably add a few photos later, maybe.
What made this holiday fun was the company I was with. I think I've gotten to know a few of my brothers and sisters better this break. Once the semester starts, I don't think we'll be hanging out as often but regardless of that, I reckon our social links have strengthen over the past 30 days.
Mann, why can't RMIT have another extra week of holidays. Then again 30 days is plenty! Hmmm it's already mid-year and a little over. This year's passing real quick. Well, what are you gonna do about it Julian? I don't think sem 2 gonna be as easy as sem 1, not saying that sem 1 was easy at all. And it seem that there are more things that I'm being committed to this sem. A busy sem it'll be, a busy sem it'll be.
Can you cope? Can you handle the pressure? Or will you-
I'll worry about that later. Tomorrow, I shall celebrate the closing of this awesome 30 days break with the MASTERCHEF's Finale!~
~ Go Poh! Go! Malaysia Boleh! ~ _________________________________________________________________________________________ A piece of good news
I did miraculously awesome in my sem 1 exams scoring, 1D and 3HDs! This is THE BEST I've ever achieved in any examination. Not even my report cards from kindergarten can top this! But I didn't really feel anything when I saw my results. No joy. No excitement. Nobody. Nothing. Maybe cause there weren't anyone around to celebrate with me (and the fact that I was falling sick thanks to the "Sydney Hangover" my sis left behind when she came to visit). Afterall, it would be pretty sad to do a victory dance alone. But I'm relieved the efforts paid off and glad that mother's happy. Now all I have to do is maintain this standard for seven more semester.
Cakewalk.
I think I owe someone a big thank you. There's no way I would be able to score like that without her help.
