A friend.. Still

3 AM... struggling to get this assignments done before tomorrow's noon... The AFC Channel is making me so hungry....

Yesterday I accidently met my ex-schoolmate, we were together in primary school since grade 1. It has been 2 years I didn't meet him, and yesterday it was too short... but he invited me to have drinks sometimes sooner... We were neighbours and I didn't realized that his family has moved out to the other area of the suburb.

We used to hang out together, share things together, play cards and boardgames... and yeah, i found him a bit attractive last time.... oh, i just realized that he looks a bit like my swan boy!

Obama's Victory!

Young Obama

Chicago celebrates the Victory of Obama

Americans entrusted their fate for at least the next four years to Barrack Obama, who made history by becoming the first african-american to win the US presidency. Congrats to Obama!

Well, I've seen the local news report from one of the National TV Stations and they reported about the USA election result. They pronounced McCain as "Mek Kin". LOL

The Witnesses of Obama's Victory in Chicago - So Sweet!

And yeah, another one; a letter faxed to TV3 from The Ministry of Foreign Affairs to congratulate the victory of Obama - they highlighted the letter and showed to the viewers and I noticed few mistakes in it. Eg. Salutation; Encik Obama for the first part and suddenly just Obama. LOL.... another one... they wrote OBAM in the letter... no A at the last! Poor quality of documentation of Malaysian Gov.

Rendah Diri...for a swan boy

Last Saturday I went for the PTD interview... and met this cute guy... Siamese mix Chinese boyish look and his name is Ben also... Ben Tay ??, 22 YO... he for the interview also

He came in oversized stripes trouser, an old oversized white shirt with few stains, cheap dress shoe, varsity logo neck tie, and yea... a backpack... Swan bagpack.... tot that only primary school kids use it...

I was wondering why... but he has a good post in CIMB as actuarial exec and got paid for 2.5k ++ per month...

and the moment of truth, ... he told the interviewer about his family background... his father had passed away, his mom is a hawker in penang, and his sister still in school... keluarga susah... nak tolong family ... I was really shocked and yea somehow it answered my questions....

He has good qualifications, very brainy, well planned future, never give up, has a good job, hardworking and yea... good heart... never show off and very thankful with what he had now....

I felt so rendah diri to him...

and the swan boy had opened up my eyes and mind and made me think....what i've achieved for myself.................?

The Rainy Sunday...

Supposed Sunday is a day with a sun... but not at my area since the afternoon... rainy... to be called Rainday. So i told my mum that i want to go to the gym (but didnt tell her which gym), and i packed all things, grabbed the car's key and drove off to The Curve.

Surprisingly it was really sunny and the weather was too hot there at Curve. I hate driving in the hot condition... made me sick already and changed myself from a decent driver to the bad one... i cursed everyone on the street just now cos the Surian St. was so jam la.

Familiar Faces
So i parked my car and rushed to Jacky's step class. Wah pancit in the step class after so long didnt do the bodystep and darn, Jacky's selections... all tough ones you know. Even two ladies in front of me also pancit. Eik... they were so familiar to me... Malaysian actresses bertaraf diva in step class with me. Diva ke? Anyway, I rasa i lebih diva sbb i did step better than them....then one of them did the bodyjam with me and the others.

Well, Kenny's bodyjam was not sizzling enough for me as i was at behind of the pillar. The Pillar was too annoying. So, macam biasa... I just syok sendiri there la. but i managed to get enough cardio workout after 4 days didn't go to the gym. I just realized that there were few familiar famous faces there at the curve fitness first. Yea.. someone told me about it also... Anyway, no big deal la... i lebih popular drp dorang kat fitness first! hahha (yea yea rite)

Then finishing the weight training... but didn't do the whole routine as there were too many things in my thought. Jobless thingy, moolah limitation, muffin top, rumah 8, wedding, etc. Thank God Timmy was there to cheer me up.

So 7 pm, it was raining and the road was bad then we headed to this vegetarian shop and grabbed our "healthy-no-msg-less-salt" dinner in Uptown. The shop claimed that their food all less salt, but i found my cantonese guotiao was salty and also Tims' spinach rice . We talked about cats, dogs, char siew, brown rice, caesarean, friends with money, fancy resturants, RM120 soup and other staple issues of our lives... and we walked out from the shop and Tims said something about vagina, a father and a son and we ended up got splashed by water from rain puddle next to us when a car went very fast on it... Darn!

That's Sunday!

Re-opening!

OMG.. its good to be back here writing again... It has been 10 months I didn't blog... dont know why, and dont ask why.... should i tell you everything that happened during the last 10 months... not necessary la... pandang terus kehadapan... cheerios!

Hello 2008...

And it comes to the conclusion or the bottom end of the year of 2007... Though there are still few things that I didn't achieve for this 2007 year. Well, it is less than 30 minutes from this "word" and I totally sure I will finish typing this entry maybe around midnight or when the clock strike 12:00 a.m.

2007 means a lot for me... There were a lot of good things happened and so few bad things... But whatever it is, 2007 has taught me how to be a real human... also taught me the meaning of maturity... and yes, I totally think time makes us grown up, mature and older...

In year of 2007 also I got the DL award for the first time ever in six years of studying... I never get it even once, and yeah, I am really grateful for this... and you know it concludes the good year of 2007 of mine. Well, the year of 2007 also means that my study will be nearly to finish... I am so excited for this internship and also the real working life after that.

Resolution... everyone has their own. Though I assume that myself also got self resolution... and you know, it keeps changing from time to time and I keep forgetting what were the resolutions... I think because I have a lot.... well, for this new year of 2008, i will set few so i can achieve my own goals... and of course, most of 'em must be concerning to myself, to improve my self, to reshape myself, to make myself a positive person, to make myself happier or gayer and also to do my best for my own career. And i hope all of these could make me better person ever live in the God's earth! What... specific resolution? Oh you think yourself... I think you can make assumption, and let me the one and only knows about my own reso cos i don't wanna publish it cos i believe, takkan jadi.

So another 7 minutes until the New Year's countdown... the last song in the play list of Alicia Keys album and the first sip of a mug of hot green tea I made... time to say goodbye to the beautiful year 2007... and welcoming the challenging 2008... Sure looks good to me! Yeah...

Anyway, I would like to express my gratitude and thankfulness to the Almighty Allah, for giving me a very normal year of 2007 and giving me a good life to face all days in 2007. Thanks to my parents, siblings, family, and friends for the continous supports and see you guys again in 2008!

Season's Greetings...

To all my Christian friends.... Merry Christmas and Happy Holiday!!! May this Xmas will be the prosperous one and will brings joy and happiness to you guys... Ho Ho Ho... !

XOXO Ben

All good things come to an end...

My right knee still hurts... though it's not like before, but i still can feel the pain around the calf area, the Patella bone and in the upper Gastrocnemius muscles.... and it makes myself very weak sometimes on the cardio machines plus inside the gym class... (I went once after my recovery)....

Well, I actually hate the fact of the "kiss the road" and hurting myself because it is gonna ruin the whole activities that i have set up for December.... Yes, of course... gym would be the most cos i need to get a good and presentable shape of torso before my internship... cos i want to wear good stuffs to look good... ( i believe in good shape=beauty)...

Now it has been 3 weeks that i didn't attend the Consplant Club because of this.... well i guess i am becoming a gym rat now... can you imagine... since the end of October i go gymming like 5p.m. to 11 p.m. everyday, went for 3 to 4 classes everyday... and sometimes i can picture myself like a lab white mice on a wheeler for experiments.... haha! Ad likes to call me a gymrat... but i always denied and now I admit it... tho still deny it sometimes.. ewww!! Actually i miss the gym very much, i miss all my gym mates, the classes and the faces...anyway... i need to accept the fact that my body needs some rest!

Recap for December.... I am officially 23.. twenty three (read my lips) this month! it was on the 18th ... OMG! I am getting older and older... OH crap! Still have many things to look on, to care of, to achieve and to do... 2008 is just around the corner... and next year everyone will say that i am 24th.. i fell like i only can feel or can have my real age for (counting) only 13 days... OMG!

Ok, i had a very minimal birthday celebration on the birthday eve starting with Thai food in Klang, and then to McD in Bukit Tinggi... (thanks Al, Amy and Abg Aim for being there for me!) we wait until the clock struck 12 a.m., and they sang a beautiful birthday song for me... The next day, went again to Thai food restaurat with my family to have our mini family dinner plus celebrating the decembers (aan and bella also) .... how sweet! (Thanks mak abah ajib aan, Bella, Nafi, Bami and Adik)....we should take picture lah during the celebration...

yeah.. the number of my age is getting a lot and a lot next year... internship will be this January 08 tho i am still not ready, dont have things to wear... (actually i need my own transport for my intern), and of course.. back to the gym! though i dont think that i cant attend everyday to the gym for 3 classes a day...but anyway... i think of lay lowing everything so that i can more relax next year.. cos i'm gonna work for real! Really....

Well, to all my family members and friends, thank you for all the birthday wishes... that all mean a world to me... (for hasrul, Happy 23rd belated birthday)...and thanks for giving me all the endless spiritual support during my recovery session... and I miss my good friends so much now, and also my good life! I'm no one without you guys....LOVE.. from the deepest heart!

XOXO Ben
