Drive. Me. No. Like.

A Learners permit or in other words an L license has been obtained. Whee..

The bengkel session today was err kinda lame. They were talking about the technical bit of a car, of which I really couldn't care less. We had this penguin speaker which was awesome cause he was lazy haha. He kept looking at his watch, gave us breaks and ran through the syllabus.

Then came the 'observe car functions' bit. Nothing much. We were then told to return to our personal driving instructors for some practical work. So I enthusiastically (ok, im lying) skipped towards Mr. Anthony and he drove us down to the circuit.

After a short stint around the track, teaching me basic stuff, to my utmost horror, he stopped the car and said "ok change place, your turn". I was so shocked all I could manage was "HUH??! You want ME to drive? Now? Are you sure?! I can't even drive! Crash I dunno ah". Hahaha..

other learners =)

Somehow or rather, I managed. With many many hiccups along the way though. And apparently with the need for speed. Kept going at the accelerator haha. Did I mention, the car died on me, many many times? Well it did. ISH. If i'm not mistaken, at one point I almost hit the side-view mirror of a parked car too, cause of those stuupid motorcycle students messing with my path. Did relatively well for the hill test though. =s

I'm just glad nobody died.

Highlight

I passed!! =)

My drivers license theory test that is..and on the way to getting a learners permit tomorrow. What a drag..another freakishly early morning.

Before I leave, let me enlighten you with a duduhead I met today at the testing centre. This guy two computers away snuck in his theory notes but was an epic failure 'cause the examiner caught him red-handed and snatched his papers away. So the retard started grumbling and making a whole tonne of noises. He was basically talking to himself all the way, while everyone else was trying to complete the questions within the time allocated. Annoying as hell.

He kept repeating "how la how la..help me please, please..die la die la.." Then he spoke in mandarin! Things like "shi la shi la..zhen yang, zhen yang?..wo chen de ben tan la (glad he noticed)..bang mang ah" At one point he even gestured prayers, or what looked like it and started going through numbers-yi er san si and so on, as if it was any help. I mean wtf right?!

Many of us just glared at him. He eventually got kicked out, and yea we presumed he failed.

Pfft ish. Over and out! heehee

Life's good..my ass

I've been alright..fear not. Thanks for the concern though.

Like I said before, there's stuff to blog about, so here we go. On Tuesday, Vivian and myself went to the state library to study. Don't laugh. Haha we got around 10 something and headed straight fr the examination study section. We were the only two in there and boy was it hot.The selfish penguin librarian only turned on the air-condition above him. I mean wth.


I gotta admit, we didn't make a lot of progress due to the fact that our eyes were still barely open. Besides, the height and comfort of both the table and chairs made it so convenient to sleep haha. Nevertheless, we did read up on stuff, staying awake only by the occasional disturbance of creepy noises and each other. Ended up talking quite a bit. Were girls laa.

Decided that it wasn't any good we tortured our sleepy and hungry souls there, so we left for lunch. The sun was right above our heads. The 5-10 minute walk became sucha drag and the traffic didn't help much.

We had lunch, met a random yet friendly lady that had to share a table with us cause there wasn't enough space; and talked a whole lot more.

The walk back to the library was waaaay more torturous. I swear if was about 39 degree Celsius outside! We stopped by 7-11 to get ourselves pumped up with caffeine, but ultimately it was to enjoy PROPER air-condition. We pretended to be indicisive freaks that couldn't pick out a drink..haha

Then came the point where we had to sprint across the street, cause you know, Malaysian drivers have no mercy towards pedestrians. By the time we got to the library, we were completely drenched in sweat. If you didn't know any better, you would have thought we ran a marathon or something. As usual with me, heat brings about a whole chain reaction. Sweat-red splotches-itch-discomfort.
.

PANAS

Outside the library...

Back to studying. Thank God the penguin turned on the air-condition full blast as more people started to arrive. Concentrated very well this time round. Full throttle. Managed to finnish an entire obese Biology book and a couple of chapters of Chemistry. Oh, I just have to add this in..Kok Mun is sooo right. Kreb's cycle should be re-named Craps cycle. Too many things to memorise.

study buddy

nerdification centre

Light off

I've something to blog, but now's not the time. My world just suddenly went topsy turvy. But I guess i'll just be the rock, as always.

=(

A soul lost, fine lines torn
That white glow, dead since born
But who are we, neither judge nor justice
For the heavens will wait, till his heart knows peace

'Happily ever after'
Who came up with that? I've got something to say to that person..EFF YOU. Don't lie.

Survived!

I made it through from 7.45 in the morning all the way up to 3.45 in the evening at the Malacca Safety Driving Centre. Completed the mandatory 'Kurikulum Pendidikan Pemandu', being another step closer to a drivers license.

My driving instructor, Mr.Anthony, came to pick me up. He's so punctual its unbelievable. Looks like somebody's not Malaysian =D. As soon as we got there, registered and stuff. Made my way into their 'lecture hall' which was pretty much like a classroom right outta school.

Laksamana hall entrance

one of em teachers that had a major attitude issue..tsk tsk haha

Was actually rather surprised that I was actually one of the younger ones there haha..we were assigned seats and fortunately I was placed right at the corner, of which the wall would later turn into a back rest. As expected, there were a lot of penguins there haha.

Dreadfully, the entire lecture was in Malay with a limited amount of English. Worst of all, those 2 teachers (Mr. Arajunan and Mr. Anand) threw out questions continuously! I was basically carrying out a mental language translation when asked to answer random questions.

Thankfully, we had an hour break in between. Just hung about the outside corridor watching examinations take place. Those cute 'lil Kancil's were going around continuously up the hill, down the hill and along the testing route. It was like a merry go round, with the occasional screeches and backward motion down the man made hill . DAMN FUNNY.

kancil heaven..haha

they just go round and round..talk about cute-ness!

Went back to class, practically listened to the teacher's life story for an hour and a half, learnt road signboards and all the rules and regulations. Did I mention it was hot in there? Faulty air-conditioning. Ish.

Was extremely glad to see Mr. Anthony later on in the evening. For one, his car is like a portable freezer. Soooo nice. He took me home in a relatively short amount of time and we had a casual chat 'bout stuff too. Nice fella..Oh I just have to mention this. It feels so right to be in a miny car. At least you'll be able to see the small thing behind the wheel. Ha ha ha ha

Got to go study for my test now..and not forgetting the piles of Chemistry and Physics just staring at me.

There goes precious time

As you can probably tell by the title..i'm not enthusiastic about what I have to do tomorrow morning. EARLY morning for that matter. Pffft..

I is going for a stupid 'ceramah' thingy for my drivers license. I is not happy. I is dreading the lifetime I have to spend there. I is definitely gonna get very restless. I is hoping they speak English. I is praying the air-condition is cold, if there's any to begin with! I is sure I is gonna come home grumpy. (Please ignore my retardedness hehe)

This is probably what it'll look like in the lecture hall..most asleep, a handful listening but visibly bored as hell and a couple of dead people.

Anyways, excuse me while i go prepare for my 6am call, to suck the life outta me. Wow! Exciting! Can't wait! Will tell u guys all about it when I get back.

If you're happy and you know it, clap your hands!

Helloooo..back after professing my biggest fear to the world haha.

I'm happy. The happy where you smile continuously. The happy where nothing in the world can go wrong. The happy where ranting about those creatures from hell is fun. The happy you really can't describe.

It's true what they say..the best things in life come when you least expect them too.

On another note, HAPPY BIRTHDAY MUM!! Love you to bits..

Phobia

Was happily gathering piles of organic chemistry notes and textbooks, making my way into the bedroom..when I noticed..a ROACH. A FREAKING CREEPY CRAWLY! In my room..MY ROOM!

For a moment or so, I just froze with fear, jaw hitting the ground. I was seriously on the verge of tears. That's how much I loathe and ultimately fear these creatures from hell. There was nothing else I could do at that point but to go get my mum to murder (would have preferred physically torturing that piece of crap, but that'll be gross) it.

To my utmost horror MY blanket was used as weapon to shoo it away! I mean wth was she thinking?

Anyways, that made the situation worse, as now I had no clue where it was. Charged out to get the insect spray, and sprayed like there was no tomorrow. Probably enough to wipe out the entire species. Haha the more the better.

After letting the air settle, I mustered every ounce of courage possible and climb into bed. One word to describe the condition after that would be-PARANOIA.

The brain is a sick organ. It reads certain fears and information, processes it; and messes up your entire response system. I could feel and literally see stuff that were not there. It was bordering hallucination, if you know what I mean.

There went studying and sleeping down the drain. I left the lights turned on and was on the lookout like some coastguard from Baywatch or something. Seeing I had no blanket to sleep with, had to make do with a dry new towel and a jacket to stay warm.

Towel and jacket for warmth, pillow thingy i've had since forever for comfort.

You guys must be thinking, "go to another room or the living room la"..thing is, my house is still kinda under renovation. Central air-condition not done, other rooms occupied. Besides the vast openness of the living room would only make more room for being paranoid.

So laying there not being able to concentrate and drowned in fear, I immediately thought of Melvin. He had a similar situation last year too haha. So I sent him a really long text. To my surprise, he called. Haha we talked for ages and as usual, random topics came about. Laughed a whole lot too, which took my mind off things for awhile. The dearest lifesaving best friend ever! Thank you!

By the time we hung up, it was around 3am. Was so physically exhausted yet hyper at the same time. Eventually I drifted off to sleep. And yes, with the lights still turned on. =)

For a similar and some what funny occurrence, Click Here to view Melvin's experience with a roach attack.

Happy is

That title is kinda trippin haha..

Had a great night last night just hanging out with mates, doing the usual stuff. Vivian, Bee Ting, Rachel and I met up at Friends cafe. We really didn't know where else to go. Malacca is truly a sad case haha..

As usual..we talked away. And as to be expected, the topics were widely spread out, ranging from the casual everyday life situations to relationships to politics. That is after all what we do best haha. Jokes and teases came flying by. The place filled with laughter and smiles just brighten up the day. Spell it with me, F. U. N. Sadly I forgot to take pictures. haih..

As usual, you never cease to amaze me.

Adrenaline running through my veins..

Just came back from the moooovies..haha

Vivian and I met up at around 11 something and just walked around the mall as though we had errands to run haha. Decided that it was kinda silly, so we headed off to Old Town for a drink n more. Ended up talking as usual..'bout all sorts of stuff as usual. =)

We watched 'He's just not that into you' shortly after. Gosh it was awesome! It spoke nothing but the truth in relationships. How everything is intertwined, making it a whole lot more complicated. It also spoke of the twisted reality that both girls n guys hold on to. Sparks, gossip, signals..err just watch the movie. Seriously.

hilarious

they have a book too!

Vivi and I looked at each other a couple of times during the movie going, "hey! we do that" and "oh my gosh, that's us!". Love is indeed an international understanding, human nature. Oh oh! The only thing kinda confusing was the number of guys we had to keep track in the movie haha.

Gotta go now..meeting up with more friends over dinner..wheeeeee

Mongoloid brains

I swear..i swear, on an occasional basis (i'm being fair here), guys really can be the biggest freaksihly annoying jerky duduheads of the century. You really spoilt the atmosphere. Enough said.

Please learn. Go figure. Take a crash course in speech or something.

Alright.

Done ranting. Haha that was funny.

There was a horrible storm last night or rather pre-dawn. I enjoyed every minute of it as i was still awake. Anyways, I fell asleep at around 5 only to be woken up by my mum. Moaned n groaned about the timing only to realise the situation. There was ankle deep water INSIDE my house! Hahaha. What a scene to wake up to. So yea..i jumped out of bed into freezing cold waters. Somehow or rather, my blanket n bed got slightly wet too. Don't ask me how, cause honestly I have no clue either haha.

My main intentions of hopping out of bed was to move to higher grounds and go back to sleep. Tired la..Thank God my house is not exactly of same level so there were still many dry portions.

Ignorance is bliss. Shrugged off everything, and knocked out once more. Hehe. =)

Eventful huh? Oh! I found a 'lil cute frog hours after the mini flood subsided jumping around the house, lost obviously. Unfortunately I didn't take any pictures as i said earlier, my main intention was to go back to bed.

Afterglow

To those that think i'm dead or something, nah..i'm still alive!

Anyways, after two agonising months..i finally went to the movies..Caught the much anticipated movie-Confessions of a Shopaholic.


Amusing i must say..Oh! By the way, my movie partner for the day was rather unexpected. Literally dragged this person to the cinema. This person is..


*suspense


My mum. Hahaha. She doesn't really fancy going to the movies for some apparent reason. Weird. I know. Nevertheless, she did come with me and it really didn't take much to get her out the door. Heck she was the one that checked the timing and stuff, much to my surprise. This is what happens when you people are not around.

Other movies i really want to watch this week, would be Hes just not that into you and The Fast n the Furious 4..wheee

On a totally unrelated note, Ping Sern wrote me this poem last year and I think it deserves a spot here for being sooo unbelievably cute.

I have a boss, her name is Teddy,
Though shes small, she can be funny,
She enjoys punching, thats her hobby,
Sometimes random, she can go crazy.

How adorable is that. Haha thanks man.

There's something different in my post today. A little change. It may go unnoticed if you don't look close enough. haha byee.
