Car Wiper Game

Today, 28th June, I went out to find my high school maths teacher with my friends.
Ms. Yew is still Ms. Yew. What kind of crap am I saying ? Haha.
After that we went back to my house. Chun Han called everywhere to find other friends. Then we waited for Koong Kien to come. Den we decided to go eat.
While we were waiting at a traffic light with Koong Kien's car in front of me.
I was waiting in my car for the light to turn green. Suddenly he open his car door and came to my car and pull my wiper upwards den went back to his car.
Me and my friends in my car were so suprised at what he did. I swear to get him back.
I found a nearby parking space with 2 spaces. I park at one waiting for Koong Kien's car to park next to mine. I got off my car and he thought we had reached our destination. I put down my wiper. Den he off-ed his engine. I went to his car and pull his wiper and ran inside my car trying to run off. He tried opening my car door to stop me from leaving but it was locked. Den I drove away.
This story tells everyone and especially Koong Kien. Dun mess with me. Haha.
I'll get you back !!!

Past and Future ?

My mum used to tell me back when I was a kid.
When I was born, my parents went to a priest to ask him to read my life.
He said my life is determined by how my dad would raise me.
Duh! Everyone knows that. The priest said "If you raise him well he will be a dragon but if you dun raise him well he will be a worm." That's in chinese of course.
And because of that phrase my dad dedicated his life in being strict with me.
During the course of growing up, I was guarded very strictly.
All this you could ask my friends about it. I'm not lying. Haha.
Over the recent years I came into contact with Japanese. The language I meant.
Now I'm in a japanese language school and i've thought of a japanese name for myself.
My japanese name is Asuka. Asuka's chinese characters literaly means flying bird.
Why would I call myself a flying bird ? It's related to my story above.
Flying bird. A bird flying in the vast blue sky. So free and relaxing.
That's what I wanna do now. Just being able to lie on a grass plain and stare at a starry night sky. How much I yearn for much freedom.
However, after many years of 'training', I' used to all those.
It's my life after all. Maybe I'm sort of a dragon now. Haha. A small one.

Aoshima Sensei





Last night, 20th June was the last day my teacher, Aoshima Yuka will be in Msia.
Me and my classmates gave her a heartwarming farewell party for her.
She was touched by it and said she will always remember it although it's in a mamak at Sri Petaling. Haha. We made lots of stuff for her.
We all wrote messages in a big card for her and we made a memory video just for her.
In all this 6 months of studying in IBT, I've always slept alot in class.
I even got loads of wake up call by her and a scolding.
I never like it when she scolded me. Who does? However I didnt hate her.
I like her very much. She was the best teacher of all my teacher in IBT.
Dun tell the other teachers. Haha. Many of my classmates especially the girls were really sad that she's leaving Msia but we all know we can't stop her from going home.
That night I was the driver for her. I made 4 rounds from Mid Valley to Sri Petaling that night just for her. It's really sad to see her leave.
Aoshima Sensei, no matter where you are, I'll remember your teaching and make my dream come true. Let's meet in Japan! All the best to what you gonna do in future.

Performance

Since last year I've performed a few times before.
Due to my stage fright I always messed things up. Next month I have another one.
This time it will be my first Sing and Play performance.
I'm pretty nervous just thinking of it. I should be excited but I'm not.
I've got no time and no practice. What will I do ?
I have to look for band members to perform with me.
With my tight schedule, my only chance is to rely on my music teachers.
This brings me back to my last post in this blog.
If only I had my free time like I did before. I could do so much or at least dun mess up to big. Now I feel so stressed right now.
This could be my chance to shine a little. I sure hope it will end well.

My Aim

Since Form3 I had my mind set on what I wanna do in future.
I tried what I could thought of to make my dream come true.
I had to take some action to make up for the time I lost.
Once I finished form5 I cleared my mind of what is not important and move on.
At first it was kinda smooth but then I hit a dead end.
It's like a roller coaster ride. However it's ok for me.
My music dream was actually working. By year 2008, I was forced to change my priority cause I had to enrol in a school. So my priority is not music anymore.
At first it was ok but after my last 1 week holiday, I realized that I've lost my aim, my focus. I really dun feel like continuing my studies.
All I have wanted to do was do music but now music is slipping from my hands.
I had to go to school everyday, facing teachers and homeworks.
I'm really losing my focus of what's important.
I really wanna live my carefree life with just music. I'm really losing it.
Is there really no future for me in this ?

Happy Father's Day

It's father's day again. It's de only day where everything is about your father.
Have you express your love for your father today ? I sure hope you did.
It's really a very good feeling when you do something for your dad.
I used to never understand family values and stuffs like that.
I still dun really care much but as much as it is my duty as a son to do something for him. At least for once a year I guess. Haha !
This year I wanted to do something but what can I do with no time and no skills.
So I decided to treat my dad and family to dinner as my gift to my dad.
He was happy with it. All I did was spent some money and everyone's happy.
It's all good. Happy Father's day to all of you out there.
It's never too late to appreciate your family.
However,you dun have to show it always. Just like me.
Because showing it out doesn't mean you really mean it.
Not showing it down mean you dun appreciate your family.
You'll never know how much a family means to someone just by looking at their face.
It's what they do that's important. Never judge a person just by their look.
Especially me. Haha !!

Chen Poni

I've known Chen Poni for quite some time.
Everytime I see her it makes my heart skip a beat.
When I went to yam cha today, Wei Cing told me that Poni would come.
I was surprise she would come. So I waited.
Den she came. I almost choke. But I kinda dunno what to say to her.
She has infinite knowledge on stuff. So her conversation are always intellectual.
She was talking to the others about college and university stuffs.
Since I dunno anything about that I just keep quiet.
When we all head to Wei Cing's house, she said she weren't going.
My heart sunk. Why did you had to go ?

Yam cha

Since my last post, I went out to yam cha with my 2 friends from abroad.
First I went out to meet with Wei Cing from UK.
Den tonight I went out to meet with Chun Hann from US and some friends from high school. Yam cha is a very recent culture in Msia. Everyone is doing it for various reasons. For me, it's to gather with friends and just talk. To catch up with them.
It's great to see that everyone have matured from the days we schooled together.
For example, Daniel is now thin and in good shape. Chun Hann is now bigger.
It really led me to think of our past. The days back in school.
Another fun event to fill my day.

Summer Time

Summer time is here again for most countries with 4 seasons.
Summer time means summer holidays. Yeah! You must be asking me why am I so happy ?
There's no summer holiday in Msia cause everyday is summer.
Well, you're half right and half wrong. I DO not have summer holiday but
my friends from out of the country do. HAHA !
Now 2 of my friends is back from their respective countries and its time to yam cha!
This is de time to test friendships. What friendship ?
I'm talking about the friendship you have when you studied together and the friendship when they come back. If they were true friends den when they come back surely they will find you at least one time. People do change when apart.
But true friendships never goes away. So if you have friends abroad and they are back, so you know what you must test. HAHA! Good luck!

Being calm

There's a lot of situation when you have to stay calm.
For example, while driving, someone suddenly made a strange move.
We gotta stay calm in time of troubles. It's to let us grasp the situation properly.
If we're not thinking right, how could we make the right decision when needed ?
Nothing good ever happen when we panic. That's a proven fact.
You have to stay calm no matter what. For example, in a fight.
When people are in a fight, the emotions and tension will increase.
Some people burst out their emotions and it turns the fight into a fire pit.
This is what I refer to as immaturity.
You can't think straight and your judgement is wrong.
You turn selfish with your thoughts and not give a chnace to the other person.
You should listen to reason and think with a clear mind.
Dun go gushing out all your thoughts and ignore that person.
Let the other person get a chance to explain and see from his/her eyes.
Not only in fights. It's for all situation.
This world would be a much better place if everyone would be calmer.
And less idiots will be in this world.

The important things in life.

In life there are many things that's important to us.
Some are big things like life savings and properties.
It could be small things like present from your children or friends.
Whatever the size or whatever it is, it plays a big role in our lives.
Without it, we won't be who we are. All empty inside.
For me, many items are important to me but there's one thing that I really need.
Just a single chance for me to realise my dream.
I'm sure that chance only comes once in a life time for us.
Some are lucky and some are just not. That's life for you.
Being an aspiring young musician, this chance to shine is really important.
Without it, it would be meaningless for me to continue what I'm doing.
My dream is very far and seem unattainable but I never give up.
This is what I wanna do and I'll achieve even I have to die trying.
For you all out there who have a dream, Work hard and dun give up no matter what.
There's always a way. If you dun have a dream, den better stop wasting time and
think of what. Dun let your youth go by just like that.
I won't give up and neither should you all.

Drumming

I'm a drummer in training. Been playing drums for my second year with a Grade 3 certificate. It's not really that much.
I cant really help but keep thinking that I'm not ready for anything big yet.
Because of school I dun really get much practice.
That's why my basic is no good.
Due to my inexperience, I cant hear and play songs. That really suck.
I've always wanted to have my own band but I still cant find anyone.
Back to drumming. My friend Zedes invited me to join his band as a drummer.
I wanted to be a vocalist not drummer. Besides my drum skills arent that great.
My teacher says i'll be fine but I still think I'm not ready.
I hope I dun mess up.

Petrol price

This recent years there have been lots of petrol price hikes in our 'good country'.
Out of the blue there's a raise. Then lots of motorist gets pumping. Creating a big jam for everyone. Normally its a raise of 10 to 30 cents.
But this time its gonna raise 78cents to 2.70. It's madness.
I spent about an hour just to reach home to write this. Man it took me long.
Hearing about the hike, Me and my frens thought about ways to save our wallet.
The mutual idea was to go to school via bicycle. It's a good idea.
Healthy. We will get plenty of exercise, save money, no jam and no hassle.
That's if you live near school. If i were to ride a bike to school den i would need to leave by 4am. But the thought is actually not bad. Haha.
At the end of the day, the hike will still happen. Prices will still soar and we will live by it. So just sit back and relax. People out there please go home.

Sorry by Buckcherry

Recently there's this song 'Sorry' by Buckcherry that is being played by on the radio.
I'm sure you have heard it before. At first when I heard this song it was ok to me.
Nothing special in a particular way. The only think I remember was the word 'sorry' in it.
Soon after hearing it tons of time when I go to school every morning, I decided to download it.
I put in my phone and listen more to it. I searched for the lyrics. Only den I knew what it was all about. The lyrics really touched me in a way. Its cause I see myself in the situation potrayed in the song. I realized I've been through that. Here's the lyrics. Not much explaination needed.

Oh I had a lot to say was thinking on my time away
I missed you and things weren't the same
Cause everything inside it never comes out right
And when I see you cry it makes me want to die
I'm sorry I'm bad, I'm sorry I'm blue, I'm sorry about all things I said to you

And I know I can't take it back
I love how you kiss, I love all you're sounds,
and baby the way you make my world go round
And I just wanted to say I'm sorry:

This time I think I'm to blame
it's harder to get through the days
You get older and blame turns to shame


Every single day I think about how we came all this way
The sleepless nights and the tears you cried
it's never too late to make it right

The only thing I would like to change about the lyrics where it says ' it's never too late to make it right'. For me its already to late to make it right and I just want to really say from the bottom of my heart that I'm really sorry. For those people who havent heard this before, you should listen to it and cherish the people around you. Some time it's really never too late.

Loneliness

Last sunday I woke up to an empty big house with no one but me alone.
I felt kinda lonely all of a sudden. I did everything at home all alone that day.
It really left me thinking about de facts of being lonely.
It always turns out to suck when you
think deep about it. When I woke up how I wish there was someone by my bed to wake me up.
Some to laugh with when I eat alone at KFC.
When I'm bored someone would entertain me.
It really comes down to a conclusion that everyone needs to have someone special to be by your side. No matter how much you enjoy being by yourself, at one point you will feel lonely.
Then you would yearn for a special someone. Perhaps a lover or a best friend or just anyone.
I wish I have a special someone like that.

High School Reunion


Last night, 31st May I went to my high school reunion.
It was in Italianese in The Gardens. It's been a year plus since I graduated.
So I'm happy I met with my ex classmates.
Some I've never seen for a long time. When I saw some of them still acting like the way
they were when we were in high school, it really made me thought about the old days.
Those were some great memories. People who graduated from high school should really
have reunions at least once a year. They are the peoples who you studied with for years.
For me it was really great. Got me thinking about the carefree days I had.
God I wish I could have such days again. Now tertiary studies suck.
