Xuen Sin (is this right?? =P) Nelson (I love your bonsai!) Bobby Seira was just great. I've missed them all, and it feels like I've never left Sg, and we're not been apart at all... I'm so hoping to meet them again! but not at MidValley.. It's too far.. and I got a ride home from Adli because he was nearby! (my hero!) LOL.. if not it would have been public buses for me... >.< Anyway, Eden Lake was.. Bad. It's not horror. It's just gory. but Sam, Omar, Lesley, Adli, were all great company. =D Thanks for lending me your arm to SQUEEZE and hide behind. Hehe. =) Dinner was good too. LOL...

2009/02/26 || 1:52 pm It's a brand new day. It's Thursday. I never liked Thursdays, since I came to Sunway, because they are just so long, tiring, and long.. but maybe I'll change my mind, because Thursday is Ladies' Night! but before I bore all of you with my endless complaints and thank yous, let me first introduce you to the highlight of the day! HAPPY 18TH BIRTHDAY MATTHEW CHAN CHUN HIN You're 18, You're legal, You can do many things, but I know I don't have to worry, because you are responsible and you're Matt. =) Anytime you want to try getting all drunk, let me know. HAHA. =) I miss you, and you, are my dear friend. =D HAVE FUN! *HUGS* I was so happy to remember to text him yesterday.. It's been an alright day. Interview was a bit.. pointless, since we didn't talk much.. and it was really short.. Law test was AWESOME, because I got 74. My first assignment came back with a 50, my first test 70, the next 73, and now 74! I hope I continue to improve! =D Psychology test is postponed to Monday, meaning I have ample time to study! =D and I went for meeting, but skipped musical because I was feeling tired. I feel bad, but it seems my priorities are rather clear now.. but I can't let go of my baby-musical! Sigh. We will have to see what is going to happen. Seriously. There's going to party after the farewell on Sunday, and I'm IN! =D Was at Lorenzo's room. Hehe. FUNNY! Adli needs to STUDY! I'm going off. BLEAH |

2009/02/25 || 10:16 am It's ASH Wednesday, and I am going to church in less than an hour's time. This year, to thank the Lord for the new beginning, and to thank the Lord for a smooth and great year so far, and to pray for a better year ahead, I shall spend more time with God, dwell more on Christianity, and for this year's lent, I shall abstain from chicken and red meat for 40 days. I pray for strength to continue, and continue to ask for guidance and grace. I thank the Lord. I thank the Lord for showing me the light. and I pray that what my sister has said, is nothing but the truth, and in time, I will come to understand as she has said, and that my life in Sunway will be a smooth journey ahead. The rain just will not stop... and everyday, the rains patters away at my window.. I miss you Matt.. =) I really do. and tonight will be the night I will sleep in peace. For more information on our AWESOME ALSCO CAMP, please go to Michelle's blog! =D Her details are good! =D haha. I'm a little lazy to type. and I cannot wait for Easter Sunday. =) A young man learns what's most important in life from the guy next door. It had been some time since Jack had seen the old man. College, girls, career, and life itself got in the way. In fact, Jack moved clear across the country in pursuit of his dreams. There, in the rush of his busy life, Jack had little time to think about the past and often no time to spend with his wife and son. He was working on his future, and nothing could stop him. Over the phone, his mother told him, 'Mr. Belser died last night. The funeral is Wednesday.' Memories flashed through his mind like an old newsreel as he sat quietly remembering his childhood days. 'Jack, did you hear me?' 'Oh sorry, Mom. Yes, I heard you. It's been so long since I thought of him. I'm sorry, but I honestlythought he died years ago,' Jack said. 'Well, he didn't forget you. Every time I saw him he'd ask how you were doing. He'd reminisce aboutthe many days you spent over 'his side of the fence' as he put it,' Mom told him. 'I loved that old house he lived in,' Jack said. 'You know, Jack, after your father died, Mr. Belser stepped in to make sure you had a man's influence inyour life,' she said. 'He's the one who taught me carpentry,' he said. 'I wouldn't be in this business if it weren't for him. He spent a lot of time teaching me things he thought were important...Mom, I'll be there for the funeral,' Jack said. As busy as he was, he kept his word. Jack caught the next flight to his hometown. Mr. Belser's funeral was small and uneventful. He had no children of his own, and most of his relatives had passed away. The night before he had to return home, Jack and his Mom stopped by to see the old house next door onemore time. Standing in the doorway, Jack paused for a moment. It was like crossing over into another dimension, a leap through space and time. The housewas exactly as he remembered. Every step held memories. Every picture, every piece offurniture....Jack stopped suddenly. 'What's wrong, Jack?' his Mom asked. 'The box is gone,' he said. 'What box?' Mom asked. 'There was a small gold box that he kept locked on top of his desk. I must have asked him a thousandtimes what was inside.. All he'd ever tell me was the thing I value most,' Jack said. It was gone Everything about the house was exactly how Jack remembered it, except for the box. He figured someone from the Belser family had taken it. 'Now I'll never know what was so valuable to him,' Jack said. 'I better get some sleep. I have an early flight home, Mom.' It had been about two weeks since Mr. Belser died. Returning home from work one day, Jack discovered a note in his mailbox. 'Signature required on a valued most in my life.'package. No one at home. Please stop by the main post office within the next three days,' the note read. Early the next day Jack retrieved the package. The small box was old and looked like it had been mailed a hundred years ago. The handwriting was difficult to read, but the return address caught his attention. 'Mr. Harold Belser' it read. Jack took the box out to his car and ripped open the package. There inside was the gold box and an envelope. Jack's hands shook as he read the note inside. 'Upon my death, please forward this box andits contents to Jack Bennett. It's the thing I A small key was taped to the letter. His heart racing, as tears filling his eyes,! Jack carefully unlocked the box. There inside he found a beautiful gold pocket watch. Running his fingers slowly over the finely etched casing, he unlatched the cover. Inside he found these words engraved: 'Jack, Thanks for your time! - Harold Belser.' 'The thing he valued most...was...my time.' Jack held the watch for a few minutes then called his office and cleared his appointments for the next two days. 'Why?' Janet, his assistant asked. 'I need some time to spend with my son,' he said. 'Oh, by the way, Janet...thanks for your time!' 'Life is not measured by the number of breaths we take but by the moments that take our breath away,' Think about this. You may not realize it, but it's 100% true. 1. At least 2 people in this world love you so much that they would die for you. 2. At least 15 people in this world love you in some way. 3. A smile from you can bring happiness to anyone, even if they don't like you. 4. Every night, SOMEONE thinks about you before they go to sleep. 5. You mean the world to someone. 6. If not for you, someone may not be living. 7. You are special and unique. 8. When you think you have no chance of gettingwhat you want, you probably won't get it, but if you trust God to do what's best, and wait on His time, sooner or later, you will get it or something better. 9. When you make the biggest mistake ever,something good can still come from it. 10. When you think the world has turned its back on you, take a look; you most likely turned your back on the world. 11. Someone that you don't even know exist, loves you. 12. Always remember the compliments you received. Forget about the rude remarks.

2009/02/23 || 8:45 am First time since college started that I got back to my room on Monday at such an early hour! I'm happy.. Hehe. but I was caught in the rain.. It was not a full blown downpour yet, but it was more than just a light drizzle, so I really had to walk as fast as I could manage in my URS slippers, and that stupid rope burn skin abrasion.. but I'm back, I'm hungry.. Waiting to go out with my sister for dinner... Before I continue on with my "happy" stories, I must write about something that has annoyed me a great deal today. I have been upset, for a while, but I have learnt to put it behind me, and I thank my friends who listened to me.. I thank Matt who spent time talking to me.. I thank friends like Adli and Lorenzo who were uber concerned.. but today.. Although it may be culture difference.. Although it may really have been an accident.. I am upset. I do not see how when you walked past me, your hand just had to brush against the side of my butt. I am upset. I don't know what you are trying to pull, but you are just severing our friendship. Still missing the ALSCO camp.. It has been a great time. I cannot wait for Elaine's photos to be up.. and those from Ms Ann.. Hehe. Mun Wai said I have a sexy voice. Husky, sexy, whatever you want to call it, I can barely hear myself.. and I cannot even sing or hum properly. Sigh.. Lol.. Talking to friends about the activities.. I realised that I really like each and every one of the icebreaker games.. First one was a line formation thing and the "music". Although my group was last and did not manage to do the line changing, I thought we put in effort and really tried, and it was something to learn. =) The "music" was when Ming Wai asked each of us to come out with a constant beat.. Be it clapping your hands, saying "ting!" (LOL..) or bashing the floor, the combination of all our beats created music. It's a once in a lifetime thing, because the same music, the replica, can never be created. It was nice. Second Icebreaker started off with us taking off our shoes and having to find them after our blindfolds were removed.. I was really sleepy and did not really know what was going on.. Plus my shoe was tied to Divya's! Lol.. Then we went to play the second game, which involved the group leader making lots of weird noises (from one animal) to give directions to his blind groupmates. It was... downright disastrous, because it was so hard to concentrate and hear Mukand, through the racket that the seniors were making. Some seniors even cut in and led us elsewhere.. and one senior was whispering my name over and over again... Some even tickled us and all that.. Haha. It ended badly, because Ainaa "detached" and ended somewhere else.. but it was all in good fun and we had a good laugh. =D Ice breaker 3 was one of the funniest. It involved Sarah, and so my group was down to 6 people instead of the initial 7. When they said we had "Talentime", I thought it would be boring since everyone would sing.. but they already had tasks for us! and it was funny. My group did some imitations of famous cartoon characters.. and we had the "american idol" judges with us! There was Hindi dance (winners!), hip hop dance, beatbox singing, singing and a combination of singing and dancing. All in all, everyone had a good time watching other groups perform after 10 minutes of cracking our heads.. I did a "I tot I saw a pussy cat" Hehe.. =) but I loved Sandi's handwave, and thought everyone did a pretty neat job. =D Then we had to sell stuff.. Haha. That was when it really got funny. Sarah and Yi-Minn contradicted each other, and it was really funny, because ... Yi-Minn has always acted rather funny anyway. He's really adorable, in a cute, sensitive way. A bit like Lorenzo (my papa) but Lorenzo's a darling. =D Anyway, the contradiction was quickly solved, and it was one of those moments I felt that.. the seniors are really organised, and of all the camps I have been to, this is one of the few, that has been rather on-time, and the activities are fun, yet display leadership and organisation! No wonder Ms Ann loves them to bits. =) Who can help it? IceBreaker 4 was the last, and I was already tired, and sleepy, and wanting to go home.. We had to form a vehicle with humans as wheels, and the driver must be carried. Since May was the lightest in my group, she was the driver. Haree was too bony and Chee Yung was having cramps, so guess who was the seat? Me. Lol.. It was all good fun, although it was tiring, and everytime someone asked if I was alright, I had to answer (really out-of-breath) "yes..I'm ok" Facing traffic lights which go from red to yellow to pink to blue, it was tiring and frustrating.. Meeting drunk drivers, old people crossing the road, people kissing in the middle of nowhere, and policeman who prioritised family over duty, it was just chaotic, and we were frustrated, even through laughter and smiles, we wanted to finish this game. About 8 steps from the end point, we were blocked at the "roundabout", with a team in front of us, and a team behind us. Hands started going all over May to grab the paper we were supposed to get. Panic. Fear. Apprehension. Confusion. Before I could make sense of everything, hands were on me, inside my shirt, and that was it. I snapped. Tears flowed. Frustrations of the day, of the camp. of my illness and everything just came. It felt good to let go. It felt good to be able to cry after an emotional night talk at the campfire, but I was not ready to let ANYONE from this group of ALSCO people see me tear.. That was when Lucas announced that "christabel is crying" and all the seniors suddenly appeared. The two teams backed off, and we cleared the game. I was asked again and again if I was alright. Frankly, I felt bad that I was causing a scene. I was embarrassed.. I truly was.. but lesson learnt? Tears get you your way. LOL... Just kidding! Haha. I was glad that we forgave and the team also forgave us for causing a scene. It's as if little things will not come in the way of our friendships, or our bonding. =) That is why although I was tired, and went to toilet and did not partake in the 2nd part of the game (asking signatures from seniors) I loved Icebreaker 4. I loved every single Icebreaker, and I think the seniors involved, did a great job. =) Ming Wai & Leslie Hui Sin & (filling in later) Sarah & Yi-Minn Michelle & (filling in when I remember) Okay, I'm super lazy to blog about the obstacle course, the night walk, the solo drop, the lake crossing, the rafting, and the meals.. So I shall blog about that later. I still have a lot of thank yous.. to dedicate on this blog. =) Life's been kind to me. I just want my voice back now please. and for now, off to do my homework. =P Labels: ALSCO camp |

I didn't go to the doctor today.. and the internet is actually not bad in the evening as compared to at night, so I'm online and blogging. Yesterday, I could not even log onto Yahoo, let alone facebook or blogger, although I did try. Anyway, I'm glad to blog now. I have homework.. Monday's Maths, Tuesday's Maths, Wednesday's Maths... A GP essay .. A law test tomorrow... Sigh. I should get started, and I will.. As soon as possible. Fell ill last night, and I was supposed to go to the doctor, but I am too lazy, but I went to the pharmacists just now, and I have taken medicine and I am already feeling better. Thanks Jon and Lorenzo =) Lorenzo was such a darling. Honestly. =D and May, for accompanying me and all. =D and Ainaa, we got our hair CUT today! Yours is NICE! I can't see much of a difference in mine.. haha.. Dear Nickolai, do get well soon.. I know many people are saying.. "oh dear.. poor nick" but I'm not, because you passed it to me~! Haha.. but let's get better together! =D I'm in a rather jolly mood. =) and I'm glad I am. =D Can't believe the "interesting project" is to plan for ALSCO seniors' farewell.. Honestly, I would back out if I could.. because I am afraid.. Afraid to screw it up. I know that we learn from our mistakes.. but I am still afraid.. The high hopes, the high expectations.. but it should not be too hard for them to enjoy themselves since they are already a close bunch of people. O, after getting the medicine, and lunch at GASOLINE! May and I went over to check the places.. and after the Atrium Cafe, we went to Sunway Hotel. There, we were not impressed, but decided to take a break and sat down.. A guy our age was in board shorts, with a cool camera (the big, good ones) and snapping pictures. He took one in our general direction, and both May and I noticed but did nothing. Next thing we knew, he was talking to us, sitting next to us and all. He had a really nice Australian accent (although I never liked Aussie accent) and it was a little thick to understand him.. His name is.. Dwayne (Irish name and I have no idea of spelling). He was commenting on how some Malaysians are shy and don't speak English much/well.. I mean, who won't be shy next to a quite-hot/cute Aussie guy who obviously can speak well? Haha. He was born in Singapore, but has changed his citizenship since he has stayed in Perth most of his life.. It's cool, right? To meet people like these just in a snap of a second. =D Haha. I wish we could have talked more or something. Oh well.. =) I wish you all the best and have a great holiday! =D Okay, I don't really know what else to blog about.. since that was pretty much the highlight of the day. I think Sanjeet is nice! =D Friendly guy. and I got to know Yai and Andy a little bit more last night at dinner. Alia too. =) The camp is on Friday.. It's already Wednesday. I don't want to be sick. I want to play the games, I want to have fun, I want to fully enjoy my RM200 camp.. I want to go watch movies.. Bleah.. I hope things will go well. I hope I will enjoy myself. I am already missing Ainaa, May, Mira, Azryn, Anisha big time. BIG BIG BIG BIG TIME. =( Oh well. my ears are itching.. and that's a sure sign I'm not very healthy. Oh dearie me. I am off to do my work.. It's weird that I feel that no one reads my blog anymore. I'm talking to myself more than ever. And NyonNyon, cheer up. =) Cheer up. Cheer up! *HUGS* |
